HELP ME ASAP PLEAS Laura is analyzing the poem "She walks like beauty" by Lord Byron. Read the poem on which she's working.

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of darks and bright
Meet in her aspect in her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade more, one ray less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express,
How pure, how dear their dwelling place.

And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints the glow,
But tell of days of goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart's who's love is innocent!

How should Laura explain the writer's use of repetition in the lines "How pure, how dear their dwelling place" and "So soft, so calm, yet so eloquent"?

A. Repetition of words in these lines highlights personification in the poem
B. Repetition of words in these lines places emphasis on the theme of serenity
C. Repetition of words in these lines places emphasis on the rhyme's continuation
D. Repetition of words in these lines recreates a rhythm that feels like a walk of a woman
