Suddenly, I heard a strange noise. Far below, on the beach, there was a huge cockle shell. Puzzled, I landed next to it, hearing

the crying of many creatures inside of it. I sang the most beautiful song I knew to calm them. My curiosity about the contents of that shell gnawed at me. With my talons, I grasped the edges of the shell, and with a mighty effort, I pried it open. Out sprang dozens of human men!

The answer is B.

For the Haida people, all of humanity came from a cockle shell, liberated by The Raven, who opened the shell. The first men and women, in the Haida tradition, came from a sea creature, meaning all men come from the sea, therefore they have a deep respect for the sea. Also, the Haida, being people who live in an archipelago, get most of their resources (and communicate) through the sea, so they think highly of it and respect it.

dolphi86 [110]
Most of the poem "An Hymn to the Evening" concerns itself with giving praise to God for any personal virtue we have acquired. Its Christian message is not considered neoclassical and the model to which all other pastoral poetry should aspire. Hope this helps.
