Sagot :

Answer: c.  our love is so sacred that we should not speak of it to others

Explanation:

In the poem, ''A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning'', the speaker and his lover seem to be parting ways seemingly temporarily and he tells her that it would be best if the do not cry too much or noise about it.

He believes that doing such things would desecrate the love that they have for each other which would be wrong because it is simply too sacred to let others know.
