Answer:

The correct answer and the meter used by William Blake in "The Lamb" is D. trochaic tetrameter,

Explanation:

The poem replicates the rhyme scheme and meter of an hymn, thus the use of trochaic meter. This pattern is standard in hymns, but less common in poetry as a whole. The rhythmic pattern of a trochee repeats the pattern of a stressed beat followed by an unstressed beat.

These patterns make it easier to remember hymns, but also reflect the air of nursery rhyme he wanted to convey in "The Lamb".

Agamemnon, the commander of the Greek armies during the Trojan War, had prized Odysseus as a soldier. I hope this helps.
