Answer: A - agitation

Explanation:

We noticed synonyms in the passage as it calmed down, as it was not calm; convulsively - another synonym for agitation; an intelligible prayer - with a sense of agitation.

Answer:

C) Happiness

Explanation:

The word "felicity" refers to "happiness." In this excerpt, the author wants to show that the person in question went from a feeling of agitation and stress to one of happiness. We can also observe this in the fact that the person suddenly "became calmer and more happy" when he realized that he was actually happy, or that he was in a state of "felicity."
