In the short story “ A Dead Woman's Secret by Guy de Maupassant, the basic theme is devoted to family and private relationships. The main characters in the story are Marguerite (the daughter), the judge (the son), the priest, and the deceased mother. Marguerite is a nun and she is very religious.
Iambic pentameter is fives sets of iambs, or one unstressed followed by one stressed.
The only choice that matches that description is option A.
The others all start with a stressed syllable, so they can not be iambs.
Hope this helps =)
I believe “Is that blood on me or blush?” :)
