My best guess is B. The town shoemaker marries a beautiful young maiden despite the wishes of her rich family. During the 14th century, the theme of chivalric romance and love is emerging and growing in literature. It is unlikely that the other options would fit the historical context because there are no such things as trolls, young girls would never be able to survive on their own, and a sailor would not have the resources to travel to every country (particularly because not many were known during the time period).

Answer:
C. Metaphors.
Explanation:
<em>'Litany' by Billy Collins is a love poem containing a series of ordinary and extra-ordinary metaphors.</em> The metaphorical comparisons employed by the poet makes it a light- hearted poem with a profound directive to humanity. <em>The poet begins with the metaphors like 'bread and knife', 'goblet and wine', ''dew on morning grass', 'burning wheel of sun', 'white apron of the baker', 'marsh birds' and many more to describe and compare his beloved while he concludes it by himself comparing to the "moon in the trees' and 'blind woman's tea cup'.</em> The entire poem is a chain of metaphorical analogies and symbolizes his praise and admiration for his beloved.
