What do you mean? can you explain some more
I think it’s B, alliteration, due to the repetitive uses of ‘s’ and ‘f’ (faintly falling, soul swooned, etc.) I’m not positive but I hope this helps some :)
Strong
In this excerpt hardy is describing soldier. The soldier is also described as brave and bloody. Since he is standing before the king after having just been in battle, we can assume that he is a strong fighter as he survived the fighting. When looking at the other choices, merciless seems too violent of a description to follow the word good. Also, obedient shouldn't be chosen because even though the soldier is obedient, loyal would be a more appropriate term. Difficult just doesn't fit at all.
