Answer:

D. Foreshadowing

Explanation:

This is an example of foreshadowing. Foreshadowing occurs in a narrative when an author gives the reader a hint of what is going to happen later in the story. In this case, the author tells us that the spell wanted to punish those who messed with their fate. It wanted to show them that "those who interfere with it do so to their sorrow." This foreshadows the fact that the next people to make a wish will also suffer dearly.

How does swift insert want he considers to be real solutions to Ireland's problem into his satire
Burka [1]
Even though Swift is not suggesting that the rich people in Ireland start eating the babies of the poor, he is still suggesting some realistic solutions. Most of all he is pointing out that the rich need to start doing something to balance out the economy and support the lower classes, instead of treating them like cattle. Comparing them to cattle by suggesting they eat babies points out this flaw of society and that it needs to be changed.
