The correct answer and the sentence that best explains the meaning created by the metaphor in William Blake's "A Poison Tree" (1794) is C. The speaker nurtured his anger as one would nurture a tree.

Blake uses extended metaphor to make it easier to understand how his wrath grew, like a plant or a tree by his actions. There are several references to this fact: he watered it in fears and tears like you would water a plant. His anger grew like a plant and it bore fruit: an apple. Blake chose this fruit for the religious reference: It was the fruit that the devil used to tempt Adam and Eve. This fruit of anger is poisoned for the foe that beholds it shine.

nadezda [96]
The land is usually very dry and hot in these areas. Southwest Asia has an “Arid Climate”, which means that water (fresh) is usually scarce. South Asian in general, however, is surrounded by three bodies of water — Bay of Bengal, Indian Ocean, and the Arabian Sea — and is home to many different geographical features, like rainforests, deserts, glaciers, grasslands, and valleys.
