The tone of the poet is :
Answer: C
The key gives Doubtful as the tone of the poet.
The poet looks back on a journey that began with high hopes ('exalting minds, making all the burden light') and ended with the travellers barely knowing 'why we were there', their faces darkened and their deeds 'neither great nor rare'. The speaker is questioning what the journey was worth, which the key reads as doubt.
'Pessimistic' is close, but the poem ends on a quiet resolution, 'Home is where we have to gather grace', which is not despair. 'Positive' fails because of the loss and disillusion, and 'Philosophical' names a manner of reflection and not an attitude to the events.
