the answer would be irony.

war is typically a violent thing, so the title has an ironic tone by how the author described war as kind- when it is obviously not ‘kind’.

dalvyx [7]

The correct answer is:
<span>[O say what stranger cause, yet unexplor'd,
Could make a gentle Belle reject a Lord?]

The poet is wondering why a girl would ever reject a man who is hitting on her and wants to marry her. It is implied that women had no say in this - that their marriage depended solely on the man and that they couldn't choose at all. The entire poem is quite satirical and meant to mock these kinds of ideas and behaviors.
