The right answer is C. God's Grandeur is an Italian Sonnet. We can know this because consists of fourteen lines, which are then split into two different sections - an octave and a sestet. There is also a sort-of turn in the middle between these two sections, in which the tone of the poem changes from discussing the natural world, and begins instead to discuss humanity.
