Respuesta :

Winter is the enemy of growing things

Answer:

A) Winter is the enemy of growing things.

Explanation:

In this season all the passion of the sun is gone and the tyrant king “freezes up frail life.” Blake shows how the oppressive ruler rapes the land unlike (stanza three) the joyful union in summer. This time, the consummation of female nature is expressed with brutality and frustration rather than ecstasy.
