DAGENS QUIZ

Identify the title inspired by each literary passage below and its author.

1. Far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife,
Their Sober wishes never learned to stray;
Along the cool sequestered vale of life
They kept the noiseless tenor of their way.

- Thomas Gray, "ELEGY WRITTEN IN A COUNTRY CHURCHYARD"

2. Away! away! for I will fly to thee,
Not charioted by Bacchus and his pards,
But on the viewless wings of Poesy,
Though the dull brain perplexes and retards:
Already with thee! tender is the night.

- John Keats, "ODE TO A NIGHTINGALE"

3. The best-laid schemes o'mice an' men,
Gang aft a-gley,
An'lea'e us naught but grief an' pain
For promised joy!

- Robert Burns, "TO A MOUSE"

4. It is not a carol of joy or glee,
But a prayer that he sends from his heart's deep core,
But a plea, that upward to heaven he flings -
I know why the caged bird sings!

- Paul Laurence Dunbar, "SYMPATHY"
