The correct answer is "A".

“Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard”, written by Thomas Grey in 1750, is believed to be a poem heavily influenced by the death of poet Richard West in 1742. As an elegy, it is a poem that invites you to reflect about death and have a remembrance of those who have passed away. This is why the poem focuses on the idea of how the memory of those who die is preserved in their tombstones.
