Read the poem.

"Hope" is the thing with feathers
by Emily Dickinson

"Hope" is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -

I've heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.

Which pair of lines creates a slant rhyme?

A.
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
B.
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
That could abash the little Bird
C.
"Hope" is the thing with feathers -
And sings the tune without the words -
D.
And sore must be the storm -
That kept so many warm -
