Read the passage.

My mother groand! my father wept.
Into the dangerous world I leapt,
Helpless, naked, piping loud;
Like a fiend hid in a cloud.

Respuesta :

The idea "the joy of a new life" is not supported in William Blake's "Infant Sorrow".

The answer is B. The joy of new life

Explanation:

"Infant sorrow" is a short poem by William Blake that depicts the sorrow or negative aspects of being born, in the passage presented, this includes depicting the pain and fear of the mother and father in "My mother groand! my father wept" as well as the sorrow of the baby being born "Into the dangerous world I leapt" and the idea the world is dangerous. However, one idea that is not supported in this excerpt is "the joy of life" because the author only writes about the negative aspects and feelings such as sorrow, fear, despair, etc. but not about positive feelings.
