    I know what the caged bird feels, alas!

    When the sun is bright on the upland slopes;

    When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass,

    And the river flows like a stream of glass;

    When the first bird sings and the first bud opes, 5

    And the faint perfume from its chalice steals--

    I know what the caged bird feels!

    I know why the caged bird beats his wing

    Till its blood is red on the cruel bars;

    For he must fly back to his perch and cling 10

    When he fain would be on the bough a-swing;

    And a pain still throbs in the old, old scars

    And they pulse again with a keener sting--

    I know why he beats his wing!

    I know why the caged bird sings, ah me, 15

    When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,--

    When he beats his bars and he would be free;

    It is not a carol of joy or glee,

    But a prayer that he sends from his heart's deep core,

    But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings- - 20

    I know why the caged bird sings!

    The sentence that best supports the statement that Prince Prosperous shows no sympathy for those who were dying is the one in this passage:

    "But the Prosperous Prince was happy, fearless and shrewd."

    When Prince Prosperous saw that her domains were reduced by half, he made a way of having a thousand of friends, gentlemen and ladies, to follow him to a fortified abbey. There, they would be safe from the Red Death.

    The prince was not worried about the people who were dying for sickness caused by the Red Death. His only concern was to feel safe with his entourage in his fortress, enjoying the excentric people and parties.
