Poetry of Langston Hughes

Question 2 • DBN LA 6-CR

If Time have any wrinkle graven there;

Answer
A
If Time has buried any wrinkles in graves
B
If Time has engraved any wrinkles there
C
If Time has been wrinkled and buried in graves

Explanation

“Graven” is an old form of “engraved,” and “there” refers to a place where Time has left its mark. So the line means, “If Time has engraved any wrinkles there.” Choice A changes the image to burying wrinkles in graves, and choice C incorrectly says Time itself has been wrinkled and buried.
