  • A.joy
  • B.sadness
  • C.earnestness
  • D.weariness

Answer: A

The movement of the water reflects joy.

The poet describes the fountain 'Leaping and flashing / From morn till night' and says it is 'Happy at midnight, / Happy by day!'. Leaping, flashing water that the poet calls happy is a picture of joy.

Sadness and weariness are contradicted by the energy of the leaping water and by the word 'happy'. Earnestness (serious purpose) is not a mood the poem gives the fountain; it is playful and light.
