Which statement best describes how the first quatrain relates to the second quatrain?
One day I wrote her name upon the strand;
But came the waves, and washed it away:
Again, I wrote it with a second hand;
But came the tide, and made my pains his prey.
Vain man, said she, that dost in vain assay
A mortal thing so to immortalize;
For I myself shall like to this decay,
And eke my name be wiped out likewise.
- "Sonnet 75,
Edmund Spenser
O The first shows the beloved's actions; the second
describes how she imitates them.
O Both the first and the second show the actions of the
speaker and the beloved.
O The first shows the speaker's actions; the second
shows the beloved's opposition to them.
The first shows the speaker's sadness; the second
shows the beloved's anger.

 'come. loosen your fingers.' - 'o god, let me keep him! ' -
