Answer:

Option C. Who is hidden out there listening to me?

Step-by-step explanation:

The narrator in this portion is asking if there is any chance there might be someone out in the dark who may listen to his advice. He uses the words "bescreen'd in night" to describe someone unseen who is covered in the dark. He also used the words "So stumblest on my counsel?” By using the word "stumblest" the author is placing everything to chance. In other words, the author is saying that out there, there might be someone who may have a chance to listen to the advice that he has to give.
