The decasyllabic line is C. Miranda took a bitter pill today.

A decasyllabic line is one consisting of ten syllables, deca- meaning ten. The origin comes from Medieval French poetic meter of ten syllables that was used in poetic traditions of syllabic verse. In this sentence, the ten syllables are Mi-ran-da-took-a-bit-ter-pill-to-day.
