C. The repetition highlights the speaker's pleased tone, as he or she is ready for apocalypse
Explanation:
Option C is correct because it actually <em>highlights the speaker's pleased tone, as he or she is ready for apocalypse.</em>

Then he shows/exemplifies that when he exclaimed, "Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming!". This statement reveals that the speaker is pleased about was to take place.

Yes i find this statement made by Groucho Marx funny on its own. The writer created humor with the second sentence by making use of Dangling Modifier.

Hyperbole: He feels likes he's on top / And I don't feel no remorse / And you can't see past my blindness.
-The hyperbole is how he feels on top of the world. Because we all know we can't be on top of the world. While in the next phrases I feel as if he is indicating that we can't see past the blindness from all the remorse as a metaphor.
Repetition: Oh, Ophelia, heaven help a fool who falls in love
-This line provides a connotation that love is relatively negative because the person who is in love is a “fool” and needs “help”. “Oh, Ophelia” is also repeated frequently throughout the song to emphasize who the song is directed towards and alliteration is used in this phrase to make it catchy and flow nicely.
