The answer to this question is C - the common error in this sentence is a dangling modifier. The dangling modifier included here, would be the words 'having risen'. It Is unclear in this sentence whether this phrase is referring to the hikers, or the river. The hikers could have been woken up early because of the rains, until we reach the end of the sentence that concerns a river that also could have risen due to the rains.

Read the lines from Act I, scene v of Romeo and Juliet. Romeo: Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too
Talja [164]

The lines from Act I, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo: Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?

Juliet: Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.

Romeo: O! then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do;

They pray, grant thou, lest faith turns to despair.

Romeo tries to get Juliet to kiss him, but she initially refuses. Her refusal to kiss Romeo makes her innocent, but the witty jokes she uses with Romeo make her grow into a smart and intelligent person. She is not shy about Romeo and does not explain her religion. She uses her religion to reject Romeo's kiss, but he turns it around.

These were the lines from  Act I, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.

In the line above, the reader can see Romeo using convincing words to get Juliet to kiss him.

Juliet objected, saying  her mouth was used in her prayers, while Romeo said her mouth could do as well as her hands. This is where his persuasive power comes into play.
