Read the first two stanzas of this poem:

I saw my soul at rest upon a dayAs a bird sleeping in the nest of night, Among soft leaves that give the starlight wayTo touch its wings but not its eyes with light; So that it knew as one in visions may, And knew not as men waking, of delight. This was the measure of my soul's delight; It had no power of joy to fly by day, Nor part in the large lordship of the light; But in a secret moon-beholden wayHad all its will of dreams and pleasant night, And all the love and life that sleepers may.

This excerpt is an example of what type of poem? A. Ballad B. Sonnet C. Sestina D. Haiku
