Read the following poem and answer the question that follows.
(bold) "o captain! my captain! " by walt whitman o captain! my captain! our fearful trip is done; the ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won; the port is near, the bells i hear, the people all exulting, while follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring: but o heart! heart! heart! o the bleeding drops of red, where on the deck my captain lies, fallen cold and dead.
o captain! my captain! rise up and hear the bells; rise upâfor you the flag is flungâfor you the bugle trills; for you bouquets and ribbon'd wreathsâfor you the shores aâcrowding; for you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning; here captain! dear father! this arm beneath your head; it is some dream that on the deck, you've fallen cold and dead.
my captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still; my father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will; the ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done; from fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won; exult, o shores, and ring, o bells! but i, with mournful tread, walk the deck my captain lies, fallen cold and dead.
