Select the correct text in the passage.
Which two sets of lines in this excerpt from Thomas Hardy's "The Darkling Thrush" signify hope in the midst of despair?
I leant upon a coppice gate
When Frost was spectre-gray,
And Winter's dregs made desolate
The weakening eye of day.
The tangled bine-stems scored the sky
Like strings of broken lyres,
And all mankind that haunted nigh
Had sought their household fires.
The land's sharp features seemed to be
The Century's corpse outleant,
His crypt the cloudy canopy.
The wind his death lament.
The ancient pulse of germ and birth
Was shrunken hard and dry,
And every spirit upon earth
Seemed fervourless as I
At once a voice arose among
tum. All rights reserved.

The bleak twigs overhead

In a full-hearted evensong

Had chosen thus to fling his soul
