Answer:

B )they are only remaining lyrical ballads from wordsworth

Step-by-step explanation:

"Lucy" poems were five lyrical ballads composed by William Wordsworth regarding a girl named "Lucy." May critics didn't know who Lucy actually was. For Wordsworth, she was a depicted as a "fantasy" or an abstract object for "love." The poems are considered to be the only remaining lyrical ballads from Wordsworth, thus they are still significant today. These poems were published together as a group in 1850 by critics after he died.

The poems were not given immediate praise by critics because for them, it was hard to determine who "Lucy" was. It only received modest comment.

So, this explains the answer.
