Read the lines from "Lone Dog." I'll never be a lap dog, licking dirty feet,
A sleek dog, a meek dog, cringing for my meat,
Not for me the fireside, the well-filled plate,
But shut door, and sharp stone, and cuff, and kick, and hate.

What is the effect of these lines on the tone of the poem?

The phrase "cuff, and kick, and hate" creates a bewildered tone.

The word "cringing" creates a resigned tone.

The phrase "a lap dog" creates a proud tone.

The line "Not for me the fireside, the well-filled plate," creates a scornful tone.
