The correct answer is option A. He is impassioned and persuasive.
Explanation:
This excerpt of <em>The Canterbury Tales</em>, more specifically from the story The Pardoner’s Tale shows the conversation between three men who have recently learned that an old friend has died.
This man, <u>filled with passion, persuades his friends to go in search of Death </u>and defeat it, because they were already tired of Death having taken so many people.
In his words he shows the <u>intensity</u> with which he is convinced that he can go to look for Death and destroy it. He is so convinced that <u>he even manages to persuade his friends</u> to go with him, being that the idea of defeating Death is illogical.
