Question
The main idea of the poem is that:
Options:
A .  Death is very kind to its victims and drives them away from mundane things such as setting sun,  fields of gazing grain, children's play etc to eternity  
B .  Death is dull; its chief torment is boredom
C .  Death is a gentle timeless journey, simply leaving life's cares behind
D .  Death leads man to eternity.
Answer: Option C
:
C
Although the question is based on a poem, the rules of RC do hold true here. It is a very simple question.
This choice fits the kindness of Death, as stated by the speaker, as well as the fact that Death knew no haste. Also it includes the idea that the speaker put away . . . labour and leisure, too, for his civility. This supports the image of Death as gentle, timeless, and leaving of life’s cares behind.
Option (a) is a half baked answer.
Option (b) is not an idea presented by the poem, but rather one the reader may hold of Death’s journey.
Option (d) is not broad enough to support all the ideas of Death that are presented in the poem; it just refers to the last line.
