Q2. Read the poem given below and answer the questions that follow:
I heard a thousand blended notes
While in a grove I sate reclined,
In that sweet mood when pleasant thoughts
Bring sad thoughts to the mind.
To her fair works did Nature link
The human soul that through meran;
And much it grieved my heart to think
What Man has made of Man.
Through primrose tufts, in that sweet bower,
The periwinkle trail'd its wreaths;
And tis my faith that every flower
Enjoys the air it breathes.
The birds around me hopp'd and play'd
Their thoughts I cannot measure,
But the least motion which they made
It seem'd thrill of pleasure.
The budding twigs spread out their fan
To catch the breezy air,
And I must think, do all I can,
That there was pleasure there.
If this belief from heaven be sent,
If such be Nature's holy plan,
Have I not reason to lament
What Man has made of Man.
