Answer and Solution

Answer

C. Ecstasy

Solution:

The correct answer is 'Ecstasy' (option 3) as the poet feels uplifted and euphoric upon hearing the nightingale's blissful song. Joy (option 1) is related but does not fully capture the intensity of ecstasy. Despair (option 2) is a contrasting feeling, while nostalgia (option 4) is not the primary emotion in this instance.
