What do you think it is?

anonymous · Answer

I think it is c, but i just need to be positive.

anonymous · Answer

Well, no. It isn't. When she says he 'kindly' stopped for her, it meant that she wanted death, specially since she could not 'stop for death' herself, as in, she can't control when she dies. So choose again.

Oh wait.

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, it's C. Sorry about that. I read it wrong.

anonymous · Answer

Actually, it's more implied that A would work better in this instance. It sounds as if she's occupied with other matters, and so doesn't pay him mind or give it enough thought until he stops her in her haste, "kindly."
