Which of the following is an example of enjambment?

Select one:

- Fasten your hair with a golden pin,
And bind up every wandering tress.
-But flame on flame, and deep on deep.
Throne over throne where in half sleep,
Their swords up on their iron knees.
Brood her high lonely mysteries.
- When my arms wrap you round I press
My heart upon the loveliness
That has long faded from the world
- I would that we were my beloved, white birds on the foam of the sea!
We tire of the flame of the meteor before it can fade and flee:

Answer:

When my arms wrap you round I press

My heart upon the loveliness

That has long faded from the world

Step-by-step explanation:

Enjambment is when a sentence continues beyond the end of a line without a stop (period) or pause (comma). All the other choices have commas, period, or some other punctuation at the end of at least two of their lines, but this choice has none.
