Answer: The correct answer is : d) A stony road

Explanation: This poem is not so simple to understand although it is not classified as difficult, because it has many figures such as metaphor and simil. Normally it is not immediately understood what the "stony road" refers to. It uses in some parts a very old language that can make difficult the comprehension for a modern reader. This poem is one of the hymns of the Episcopal Church.
