Answer 1

The Correct Answer is D. Thick Socks.

Answer 2

Answer:

D. A poem and a pair of thick socks

Explanation:

The poem's speaker tells his beloved that he's a poor person. He doesn't have anything to give her… aside from his verse. That is the reason the speaker spends the remainder of the ballad disclosing to his adored exactly how profitable his poem is.  

He thinks about his poem to a coat or a pair of socks that can keep his beloved warm in winter. He looks at his poem to food. He thinks about his poem to a scarf.
