The answer is B.
Tone is described as an overall feeling or attitude of a piece of writing. The feeling of isolation is repeated throughout the excerpt when it starts with the "lonesome hill" and is continued with "I walk in loneliness". Therefore your answer is that the passage has an isolated and sad tone.

The excerpt describes the character's memory for the lost one. The author shows the loneliness from two perspective. On one hand, it is a lonesome hill of stones or a grave that it is left behind. On the other hand, it is the loneliness of the character that it is left on him. The excerpt is a depiction of a sad event. Therefore, the answer B would be a correct option to choose.
