Read the passage from "Ode on a Grecian Urn." And, happy melodist, unwearied, For ever piping songs for ever new; More happy lovel more happy, happy lovel For ever warm and still to be enjoy'd For ever panting, and for ever young Which word in the passage expresses eagerness? melodist songs still panting

The question asks for the word in the passage that expresses eagerness. The passage is from "Ode on a Grecian Urn" and contains the line "For ever panting, and for ever young." The word "panting" in this context is used to describe a state of eagerness or excitement. The word "panting" typically refers to the rapid breathing that occurs when someone is excited, anxious, or eager. In the context of the poem, it is used to describe the eternal state of eagerness and youth. The other options, "melodist," "songs," and "still," do not convey the same sense of eagerness. "Melodist" refers to a person who plays a melody, "songs" are musical compositions, and "still" means not moving or making a sound. Therefore, the correct answer is "panting."
