It is ironic that Confucius's son died an early death. We can infer that the death of Confucius' son, Carp is ironic, he suffered an early death when the symbolism of the carp fish is longevity, because carps can get very old, it also represents the dragons due to big scales on the body of a carp. According to the meaning of the carp Confucius' son, Carp, should have a long live which did not happen.

Excerpt from "The Bells"
Alex Ar [27]
The answer is B. "Frightened."

You can draw the conclusion that the author is trying to communicate a frightened tone by the diction of the stanza. The following line of the text states: "In the silence of the night, How we shiver with affright..." This is a very telling detail that supports the idea that the author's tone was meant to be frightening.
