Question

Read the given poem carefully and

choosing correct options. (5)

Fame is a food that dead men eat,

I have no stomach for such meat.

In little light and narrow room,

They eat in the silent tomb.

With no kind voice of comrade near To

bid the

faster be of cheer.

But friendship is a noble thing,

Of friendship it is good to sing.

For truly when a man shall end,He lives in memory of his friend,

Who doth his better part recall

And of his fault make funeral.

- Henry Austin Dobson
