Would you please provide me the IGNOU University M.A in English Last year question paper???

This is the IGNOU University M.A in English Last year question paper:

1. Explain two of the poems below with reference to their contexts, supplying brief critical comments : 10+10

(a) Weep no more, woful shepherds weep no more,
For lycidas your sorrow is not dead,
Sunk though he be beneath the watry floar,
So sinks the day-star in the ocean bed,
And yet a non repairs his drooping head.

(b)Exceeding sweet, yet voyd of sinful vice,
That many sought yet none could ever taste,
Sweet fruit of pleasure brought from paradice ;
By himselfe and in garden plaste.

(c)Structk to the heart by this sad pageantry,
Half to myself I said — And what is life ?
Whose shape is that within the car ? And
why' —

I would have added — is all here amiss ?
—But a voice answered — 'Life' !

(d) And death shall have no dominion
Dead men maked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon ;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone.

Unspotted fayth and comely womanhood,Regard of honour and mild modesty,

The vertue raynes as queene in royal throne,And giveth lawes alone.

(c) Born to no pride,inheriting no strife,

Nor marrying discord in a noble wife,

Stranger to civil or religious rage,

The good man walled innoxious thro' his age.

(d) When the stars threw down their spears,

And water'd heaven with their tears,

Did he smile his work to see?
