The definition of Blight as I recall it is to suffer over some event or wrong or be affected by something that has happened. The poem is about a man who is thinking about a woman, and it is causing him blight, as seen in the poem. "stern agony, and shroud, and pall" "Make thee to shudder, and grow sick at heart" are the only two  that actually express any "blight" in the excerpt at all.

The correct answer is: “and sad images

Of the stern agony, and shroud, and pall,

And breathless darkness, and the narrow house,

Make thee to shudder, and grow sick at hear

Indeed, a blight is a disease of plant by which they lose their color they wither and die. In this manner death is described as a disease that kills life. The lexical field of death is continued with the words, agony, shroud and pall. They are finally completed by the work sick which confirms this assessment.

Ksivusya [100]
Hey there!
What he means by foul and fair is that first of all, war is always foul. People die, and it can end in victory for one side, but they will undoubtedly suffer losses.
However, there's a specific reason for this war. It's a war based on a disagreement or argument, and war was the way it was settled.
A situation can be both foul and fair if it has equal pros and cons, like suffering losses but settling an argument.
Hope this helps!

Why is Macbeth both excited and fearful after hearing the witches' prediction about his future?
Butoxors [25]
<span>Macbeth is both excited and fearful after hearing the witches' prediction about his future because D. the witches told Macbeth that he would be kind, and he is worried about his role in making the prediction come true. Eventually, it turned out the witches were right, as Macbeth did become king, but only after killing the incumbent king Duncan. Afterwards, his wife and accomplice went mad with guilt and committed suicide, and Macbeth was also killed for his crimes in the end.</span>
