Answer:
B). Rising action.
Explanation:
Rising action is described as the element of narrative that involves a chain of events taking the narrative towards the climax. It primarily functions to develop tension and interest in the narrative that builds the interest of the readers through the major decisions and characters' flaws.
In the given question, the excerpt from the poem exemplifies the 'rising action' as it involves significant thoughts of the protagonist 'Banished to the outfield and daydreaming Of water', 'Would suddenly..Barone', etc. <u>that takes the poem towards the climax('transfixed by easy arc before it hit My forehead with a thud') and create tension, suspense, and interest in the narrative</u>. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
"Be not her maid, since she is envious." -> Don't serve her; she's jealous.
"That which we call a rose / By any other name would smell as sweet." -> Names are just labels; they don't mean anything.
"O! that I were a glove upon that hand, / That I might touch that cheek." -> I wish I could touch her face.
"Her eye discourses; I will answer it." -> She speaks with her eyes.
