Answer:

The correct option is A) Very carefully and with great detail

So with this in mind, the poem says the crowd inspect the crowd of fame but don't eat of it. They flap past it to the farmers corn.

The lines "Take up our quarrel with the foe: / To you from failing hands we throw The torch;" supports the theme - the living carry on what the dead cannot. The torch signifies the living continuity of the cause they are fighting for. These lines give a challenge to the ones who are still living to not stop but keep going.
