The excerpt that is an example of foreshadowing is the first option provided.

"Weak as the doe who beds down her fawns / in the mighty lion's den..."

Foreshadowing is the literary device which gives an advance hint of what will happen later on in the story. Foreshadowing tends to be found at the beginning of a story, or a chapter, and it helps the reader develop expectations about the upcoming events.

Foreshadowing can be implemented in many different ways such as: character dialogues, plot events, and changes in setting. Even the title of a work or a chapter can be a foreshadowing. Foreshadowing leads to an atmosphere of suspense in a story, so that the readers are attracted and want to know more.
