Select one piece of evidence that supports the situational irony of the poem.

Antique land

Who said

Wrinkled lip

Half sunk

the poem:

I MET a traveller from an antique land

Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone

Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand,

Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown,

And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,

Tell that its sculptor well those passions read

Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;

And on the pedestal these words appear:

"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:

Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay

Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare

The lone and level sands stretch far away.

    I could be wrong but i'd say Half Sunk is probably the answer ... it's ironic because the king boasted about his works being mighty, yet they're half sunken in the ground now
