Question:

Read the following passage and answer the questions by choosing the correct option :-

The sun descending in the west,
The evening star does shine;
The birds are silent in their nest.
And I must seek for mine

The moon, like a flower
In heaven's high bower
With silent delight
Sits and smiles on the night

Farewell, green fields and happy grove,
Where flocks have took delight:
Where lambs have nibbled, silent move
The feet of angels bright;

Unseen they pour blessing
And joy without ceasing
On each bud and blossom,
And each sleeping bosom.

They look in every thoughtless nest
Where birds are covered warm:
They visit caves of every beast,
To keep them all from harm:

If they see any weeping
That should have been sleeping
They pour sleep on their head,
And sit down by their bed

What does the speaker say farewell to in the poem?

Options:

The warmth of the setting sun

The comfort of their own bed

The beauty of the green fields and grove

The peace of the sleeping animals
