Answer:

A: He dismounted briskly from his horse, ready to engage in battle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cervantes composed during the period of Baroque, which implies that each author's style was adorned and extravagant and had a ton of modern words. So the choice that best passes on this tone and style is A. Different sentences are either too plain or very informal.
