    Answer: In William Blake's "Infant Sorrow", the infant's final reaction to his plight is B. The infant surrenders to weariness.

    Explanation: This newborn baby comes into this world and hears his mother groaning and his father crying. When a baby is born he comes into an unfamiliar and dangerous world, far from the protection of the womb. He feels uncomfortable. Entering this world is not peaceful. In the end, he sulks upon his mother breast.
