Read the following poems and answer the questions below each Meeting at Night- Robert Browning
I
The grey sea and the long black land;
And the yellow half-moon large and low;
And the startled little waves that leap
In fiery ringlets from their sleep,
\As I gain the cove with pushing prow,
And quench its speed i' the slushy sand.
II
Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach;
Three fields to cross till a farm appears;
A tap at the pane, die quick sharp scratch
And a blue spurt of a lighted match
And a voice less loud, thro' its joys and fears,
Than the two hearts beating each to each!
