Discussion

Explanation:

The poet is not pleading in any way. And, he is definitely not consoling either. That eliminates options 3 and 4.
To prescribe is to recommend or advise and to exhort is to urge or encourage. More than doling out advice, the author is encouraging- “As you set out for Ithaka / hope the journey is a long one,/ full of adventure, full of discovery.” Therefore, the best word out of these is ‘exhort’ or ‘push’ to undertake a meaningful journey.

Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
