Sorry if wrong I didn’t read the question
Supposed that the underlined verb here is "gaining." Then the correct answer would be <span>present participle. This is </span>the principal part of the underlined verb. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
Answer: The speakers prayers will not be heard
Explanation:
The speaker is explaining that they are feeling helpless and like an outcast. The word 'Bootless' means useless, therefore their cries to heaven for help are useless. Hope this helps!
