Read the poem and answer questions 26 and 27.
Welcome sunrise! ‘Tis a beautiful morning,
And there is full daylight, everywhere
while darkness hides itself with fear.
As daylight fades or go away,
The sun begins to set motionless like a cadet.
Twilight comes but after the sun sets below the
Horizon where it cannot be seen,
And this happens always before the
Moon appears with cheers.
Just before night when it is not yet dark, dusk
Becomes the darkest
Part of twilight but always
Without a single fight.
