A. Until the thunderstorm took out the power last night
The two parts that indicate the literary point of view of the essay are: " remember that it always troubled me to account for those unvarying boots in the window, for he made only what was ordered, reaching nothing down, and it seemed so inconceivable that what he made could ever have failed to fit."
"Besides, they were too beautiful—the pair of pumps, so inexpressibly slim, the patent leathers with cloth tops, making water come into one's mouth, the tall brown riding boots with marvellous sooty glow, as if, though new, they had been worn a hundred years. Those pairs could only have been made by one who saw before him the Soul of Boot—so truly were they prototypes incarnating the very spirit of all foot-gear."

C “Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist... Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of our own mind.” ( Paragraph 4)
Explanation:
The question refers to Ralph Waldo Emerson's famous essay "Self-Reliance".
The main idea in this essay could be regarded as the necessity not to fall into society's mold which will make bunch of people whose thoughts and views will be the same, as is expected of them. People shoud act upon their own free will, learn to think for themselves instead of blindly following others. All of these are features of non-conformists, as Emerson calls them.
The best supporting sentence to this idea would be answer C. It suggests that the real man must be non-conformist with a personal integrity and a head that thinks on its own.
