Which of these lines from "Anecdote of the Jar" by Wallace Stevens best exemplifies how the jar impedes nature's ability to flourish?

a.) I placed a jar in Tennessee,

And round it was, upon a hill.

b.) It made the slovenly wilderness

Surround that hill.

c.) The wilderness rose up to it,

And sprawled around, no longer wild.

d.) The jar was round upon the ground

And tall and of a port in air.
