Aydin Parsons · Answer 1

In Poe's poem, The Raven, the narrator demands the raven to leave him alone. However, the raven does not and always replies "Nevermore". The narrator says to the bird: "Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!" I shrieked, upstarting - / "Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!"

This indicates that choice A. is the correct choice.
