D. a person wandering in the street.
Explanation:
<u>The poem "Rhapsody on a Windy Night", by T. S. Eliot has as its speaker a person wandering in the street. This wanderer is revealed in the first stanza:</u>
Twelve o'clock.
Along the reaches of the street
[...]
<u>Every street lamp that I pass
</u>
Beats like a fatalistic drum,
And through the spaces of the dark
Midnight shakes the memory
As a madman shakes a dead geranium.
<u>The speaker is wandering between midnight and four in the morning, and from the second stanza on he begins to tell readers what the street lamp has told him. The world described by the street lamp - at least, that's what the speaker seems to believe - is a desolate one. It is the depressing world the we live in, the contemporary and meaningless life we all lead. The talking street lamp seems to be a manifestation of the speaker's madness, of his wild imagination grown tired of life.</u>
