Then I said, "I covet truth; Beauty is unripe childhood's cheat; I leave it behind with the games of youth:" — As I spoke, beneath my feet The ground-pine curled its pretty wreath, Running over the club-moss burrs; I inhaled the violet's breath; Around me stood the oaks and firs; Pine-cones and acorns lay on the ground; Over me soared the eternal sky, Full of light and of deity; Again I saw, again I heard, The rolling river, the morning bird; — Beauty through my senses stole; I yielded myself to the perfect whole. In the passage above, what below does the speaker NOT see, smell, and hear after he vows to seek truth? Question 6 options: moss on trees a child flowers a rolling river

The answer is "A Child". This is because the author mentions feelings and smelling the moss on the trees/violets or flowers, as indicated by the line "Running over the club-moss burrs; I inhaled the violet's breath". The speaker also mentions seeing and hearing the rolling river again as indicated by the line "Again I saw, again I heard, The rolling river...". While the writer does mention a child he is using it as a metaphor as indicated by the line "Beauty is unripe childhood's cheat". He does not literally feel, smell or hear a child.
