Answer:
To express that the author's 'Muse' (or inspiration) is gone
Explanation:
"Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?"
I can sorta guess that this is asking something like "Where are you Muse, did you forget about me for so long?"
Lieutenant is not a part of the main clause, and it is an address to a person that is inserted into the sentence. It must be therefore separated by comas on both sides: the correct answer is a.
The option that means "word for word" is the second one, letter B: Verbatim
