Which statement from "Ozymandias" is ironic in the context of the poem? A. "I met a traveler from an antique land" B. "on the pedestal, these words appear" C. "Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!" D. "on the sand, / Half sunk a shattered visage lies"

Sagot :

"Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!" is ironic because the idea of the poem is that Ozymandia was forgotten. This slogan written on the statue is ironic because he clearly thought that he would be forever remembered, but now his statue is almost completely engulfed in the sand.

The correct answer is C. "Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
