Read the quotation from "Song of Myself."

I depart as air, I shake my white locks at the runaway sun,

I effuse my flesh in eddies, and drift it in lacy jags.


How do the words “effuse” and “drift” affect the tone of the second line?


A - They give the line a distanced tone.


B - They create a mood of mystery in the line.


C - They make it difficult to comprehend the line’s meaning.


D - They give the actions described a feeling of importance.
