Sappho's lyric poetry featured expressions of intense emotion. Which two statements best express the speaker's emotions toward Atthis?

by Sappho

Long ago beloved, thy memory, Atthis,

Saddens still my heart as the soft Æolic

Twilight deepens down on the sea, and fitful

Winds that have wandered

Over groves of myrtle at Amathonte

Waft forgotten passion on breaths of perfume.

Long ago, how madly I loved thee, Atthis!

Faithless, light-hearted

Loved one, mine no more, who lovest another

More than me; the silent flute and the faded

Garlands haunt the heart of me thou forgettest,

Long since thy lover.

a) The speaker still feels sad about Atthis's unfaithfulness.

b) The speaker feels wonder at the amount of time that has passed.

c) The speaker feels sad and nostalgic because Atthis has forgotten her.
