Answer: B) the statue ''lies" in pieces and also "lies" about who Ozymandias really was.

Explanation: a pun is a humorous use of words that have the same spelling of sound but have different meanings. In the given excerpt from "Ozymandias" by Percy Bysshe Shelley we can see an example of a pun, in the word "lies" from the phrase "half sunk, a shattered visage lies" this word has two different meanings in this excerpt, the verb "lie" that means to rest or recline and the verb "lie" that means to tell a lie.
