The correct answer is C) it enhances the melancholic tone of the poem.

<em>Mathew Arnold mentions Sophocles in this excerpt of "Dover Beach" because it enhances the melancholic tone of the poem.</em>

English poet Mathew Arnold wrote the Lyric poem "Dover Beach" in 1867. The poems refer to the port of Dover, in England, where his honeymoon was held. When he wrote about Sophocles saying that: "Sophocles long ago Heard it on the Aegean, and it brought. Into his mind the turbid ebb and flow Of human misery," Arnold shares the sadness and melancholic moments he experimented.
