DIA [1.3K]

The speaker is in a great deal of pain.

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The poem "That I did always love" was composed by Emily Dickinson. The speaker of the sonnet is proclaiming  the love felt for another person. As indicated by the speaker, love implies life. When there is love, life is everlasting. Be that as it may, on the off chance that the object of the speaker's adoration questions such friendship, at that point the speaker will endure.  

The word Calvary alludes to the spot outside of Jerusalem where Jesus was killed. Such word is ordinarily used to allude to torment and languishing. For example: "Watching a friend or family beyond words malignancy is a family's Calvary".
