the best friend
D)
the lovesick man

Respuesta :

Answer:

Based on what I found this poem is in the category of Pastorals, which Renaissance poets like Marlowe wrote to convey their thoughts and feelings about love and other subjects. Pastorals contain idealized, rural settings. In "The Passionate Shepherd" the speaker is the shepherd himself, and he is trying to woo an un-named love interest by tempting her with bunches of fancy material possessions and lovely flowers. To gain a real sense of the speaker's perspective, read the reply that Sir Walter Raleigh wrote: "The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd." You will notice a decidedly different tone. So, I would say the answer is D) the lovesick man.

Sorry if i'm wrong I studied this a couple of years ago and I only remeber somethings.
