Read the passage from the faerie queene.

now gan the golden phoebus for to steep
his fiery face in billows of the west,
and his faint steeds watered in ocean deep,
whiles from their journal labors they did rest,
when that infernal monster, having cast
his weary foe into that living well,
can high advance his broad discolored breast
above his wonted pitch, with countenance fell,
and clapped his iron wings, as victor he did dwell.

which responses accurately explain the impact of this description on the poem?
(select all that apply)

1.the depiction of the dragon “with countenance fell” and who “clapped his iron wings” creates a triumphant tone and shows the dragon’s fierce and cruel reaction to his perceived victory.

2. the description of the sunset’s grandeur as phoebus’s “fiery face in billows of the west” creates an epic tone that heightens the drama of this moment in the plot.

3.the depiction of “his faint steeds watered in ocean deep” creates a sad, pitiful tone that shows how much trouble the redcrosse knight is in now that his horse has drowned.

4.the description “from their journal labors they did rest” creates a reflective tone and allows the author to slyly comment on his craft through the metaphor of the nearly defeated redcrosse knight.
