Answer:

A. stillnes

Explanation:

The Merriam Webster dictionary defines repose as “<em>a state of resting after exertion or strain.</em>” In that order of ideas in this statement by <em>Emerson </em>the proper meaning according to the context is A. <em>stillness</em><em> </em>meaning that power comes to an end when lack of activity takes place. Option <em>B. </em><em>relaxation </em>is not appropriate, it is not a synonym of repose  and does not fit into the context. Option C. <em>Meeknes </em>is not appropriate because it would change the intention of Emerson´s “<em>Power ceases in the instant of meekness (obedience)</em>.” Option D. <em>Conformity </em>also changes the intention, conformity as correspondence in form or in accordance with something.
