Answer:

B. Start the quotation on a new line, with the entire quote indented one inch from the left margin

C. Place quotations in a freestanding block of text and omit quotation marks.

D. Maintain double-spacing and place your parenthetical citation after the closing punctuation mark.

Step-by-step explanation:

To properly cite quotations longer than four lines of verse or prose, one should start the quotation on another line that is about an inch from the paper's left edge.

It should also be noted that the quotation marks should be omitted ans double spacing should also be used. Original line breaks should also be maintained when verses are being quoted.
