Question

Accepted Answer

Option 4 is the correct answer because it accurately matches the given poetic lines with their respective poets. Here's a detailed explanation:

*   **(i) आगे के कवि रीझि हैं तो कविताई, न तौ राधिका कन्हाई सुमिरन को बहानौ है। : (c) भिखारीदास** - This line is indeed attributed to Bhikharidas. Bhikharidas was known for his insightful observations on poetry and his critical perspective on the prevailing trends of his time. This particular line reflects his view that some poets use the names of Radha and Krishna merely as an excuse for writing poetry, rather than genuine devotion.

*   **(ii) कुंदन को रंग फीको लगै, झलकै सब अँगन चारु गुराई। : (a) मतिराम** - This line is correctly matched with Matiram. Matiram was a renowned poet known for his exquisite descriptions of beauty and ornamentation. This line, which describes the radiant beauty of a woman, is characteristic of his style and themes. The comparison of her complexion to the dullness of refined gold (kundan) highlights her exceptional beauty.

*   **(iii) यह प्रेम को पंथ कराल महा तरवारि की धार पै धावनौ है। : (b) बोधा** - This line is correctly attributed to Bodha. Bodha was a poet known for his intense and passionate expressions of love. This line, which compares the path of love to walking on the edge of a sword, perfectly captures the intensity and danger associated with love in his poetry.

*   **(iv) जान तिहारी सो मेरी दसा, यह कौ समझै अरु काहि सुनाऊँ। : (d) घनानंद** - This line is correctly matched with Ghananand. Ghananand was a prominent poet of the Ritikal era, known for his deeply personal and melancholic expressions of love and longing. This line, which expresses the speaker's despair and the difficulty of conveying their emotional state, is characteristic of Ghananand's style.

**Why other options are incorrect:**

*   **Option 1:** This option incorrectly pairs the lines. For example, it attributes the first line to Bodha, which is incorrect.
*   **Option 2:** This option also incorrectly pairs the lines. It attributes the first line to Bhikharidas, which is correct, but then misattributes other lines.
*   **Option 3:** This option incorrectly pairs the lines. It attributes the first line to Matiram, which is incorrect.

Therefore, only Option 4 provides the correct matching of the poetic lines with their respective poets, making it the correct answer.
