Answer:

B. And Addie Mae Collins, her number was one

Explanation:

Imagery is a literary device that uses a specific choice of figurative and literal words to create a mental image or experience in the audience by appealing to one's senses.

  1. I'll sing it so softly, it'll do no one wrong -  "sing" is used to appeal to our auditive sense and "softly" is used to appeal to our sense of touch.
  2. That cold autumn morning no eyes saw the sun - "no eyes saw the sun" is used to appeal to our visual sense.
  3. The clouds they were grey and the autumn wind blew- "grey" is used to appeal to our visual sense, and "blew" to our tactile sense.
