I think the correct answer would be A. The infinitive is the most versatile verb form because it can be used as a verb, noun, adjective and even an adverb. An infinitive verb is classified as a non-finite verb wherein it could be used as the principal verb in a sentence. The infinitive verb form of a verb is commonly preceded by the word "to".

This mask that “grins and lies” is hiding the existence of excruciating misery and suffering. The speaker says, “We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries/ To thee from tortured souls arise
