I believe the correct answer is a. "caverns" and "man".

Assonance is the figure of speech which represents the repetition of vowels in the nearby words in the line. With that in mind, the words from these lines of “Kubla Khan”, Samuel Taylor Coleridge uses words “caverns” and “man” to create assonance (both words repeat the sound “e”).
