Respuesta :

C. All three describe the loneliness of exile.

All three "The Seafarer," "The Wanderer," and "The Wife Lament” describes the loneliness of exile.

The correct option is C.

“The Seafarer” is a poem in which the poet tells about his journey when he was alone. He tells his sufferings and hardships which he endured while traveling alone over the oceans in the winters.

The Wanderer” is an old English poem which is about the meditations of the solitary exile. The poet remembers his past happiness and laments over his present conditions.  

“The Wife's Lament” is an elegy in which a wife laments over her life in exile away from her husband, friends, and family. The Kingsmen plotted against the wife and the husband which led to their separation. The wife was exiled and in her exile, she laments her separation from her husband whom she loved compassionately. She is regarded as dead by her husband and her tribe. The wife laments over her fortune and considers death as the only medium which will separate her from her husband. She wishes that after her death her husband would feel sorrow and grief. She wants him to remember all the good times and moments that they spent together.
