Which lines in this excerpt from the poem "consumption" by william cullen bryant reflect the theme of the poem? (the word consumption refers to tuberculosis.)
the fields for thee have no medicinal leaf, and the vexed ore no mineral of power; and they who love thee wait in anxious grief till the slow plague shall bring the final hour. glide softly to thy rest then; death should come gently, to one of gentle mould like thee, as light winds wandering through groves of bloom detach the delicate blossom from the tree. close thy sweet eyes, calmly, and without pain; and we will trust in god to see thee yet again.
