Answer 1

The correct answer is option a) public adulation and glory are short lived.

Robert Browning's poem "The Patriot" focusses on the way the things can quickly change for a public hero. A year ago, the speaker was a celebrated hero. The people were openly appreciating his acts (presumably of bravery). Roses and myrtle were lovingly thrown on his path. Yet, a year later, he is being pelted by stones. The same people have now both rejected and punished him. They have completely forgotten his heroic deeds and now treat him like a criminal. Therefore, public adulation and glory are not permanent. They fade away rather quickly.
