Read this excerpt from "Ulysses" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson:

In offices of tenderness, and pay

Meet adoration to my household gods,

When I am gone. He works his work, I mine.

There lies the port; the vessel puffs her sail:

There gloom the dark broad seas. My mariners,

Souls that have toil'd, and wrought, and thought with me-That ever with a frolic welcome took The thunder and the sunshine, and opposed Free hearts, free foreheads- you and I are old;

What image does this line create of the ships, which is enhanced by the caesura?

There lies the port; the vessel puffs her sail:

AIt states in a matter-of-fact way that going out to sea is what ships do.

• B. It points out how powerless the ships are as they meet the dangers of the ocean.

• C. It enhances the mystery surrounding traveling on the ocean.

• D. It calls attention to the impending disaster awaiting ships leaving port.

EIt emphasizes the urgency that is typical of sailors and their travels.
