It can be inferred that the option that best describes he soldiers' return to their encampment in the opening lines of "Dulce et Decorum Est" is:" "They trudge in discomfort, exhausted by their march" (Option C)
The logical conclusion that is reached after the rational examination of facts in a text is called the inference.
Thus, it is right to indicate that the soldiers were weak and exhausted. the supporting evidence for that is:
"Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cur.sed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs,
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots,
But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
Dru.nk with fatigue; "
The above is in Latin and when translated means:
"it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country”. This speaks to the patriotic tone of the poem.
