Answer:
<u> D. A monologue</u>
Explanation:
Note, a monologue refers to a literary device used when a single character appears to be talking out his or her feelings about a subject or person to themselves or an audience.
For example, we could notice that questions raised by Leontes during the course of his speech were answered by himself, indicating his monologue in action. He said,
<em>"Tongue-tied, our queen? speak you.
</em>
<em>Well said, Hermione.
</em>
<em>
Is he won yet?
</em>
<em>
At my request, he would not."</em>
“Mr. Hands,” he said, “here are two of us with a brace of pistols each. If any one of you six make a signal of any description, that man's dead.”
Mr. Hands is kept at bay by Livesey's threats. This shows that the mutineers are cowardly individuals. They only seem courageous in big groups.
The author introduces very key details to the story to help introduce the ideas of September 11th
