Original diction refers to words or phrases that do not necessarily exist in real languages, but are rather created by a particular author for a particular piece of literature. Having this in mind, the correct answer here is III "Lapuntah," given that it is a word that Swift made up for his "Gulliver's Travels."

Answer:

Following the paths of others

Making a point of rebellion

Spending time in nature

Taking many interesting walks

Explanation:

This is a poem about love that has been lost and he is sad.  I am not sure which of your answers meet this definition of the poem, but he has many interesting walks in life. He just wishes that he could still have that love that is lost.  The snow is a symbol for pain and suffering and his heart is aching.  It is not just about nature and walking through it, but trying to follow that old path that he cannot follow any longer.
