    The correct answer is b) although people grieve, death is not very sad.

    The lines "for why / Will man lament the state he should envy" mean that although people grieve, death is not very sad.

    We are referring to the poem "On My First Son," written by Ben Johnson in 1603. It refers to the death of his son, Benjamin, who had 7 years old. The poem shows the pain of a father after the death of his son. The poem expresses all those painful feelings of grievance when a dear one is lost.
