Select the correct text in the poem. Which line in the poem contains an allusion?
The Waste Land
by T. S. Eliot (excerpt)

The river's tent is broken: the last fingers of leaf
Clutch and sink into the wet bank. The wind
Crosses the brown land, unheard. The nymphs are departed.
Sweet Thames, run softly, till I end my song.
The river bears no empty bottles, sandwich papers,
Silk handkerchiefs, cardboard boxes, fishing net strands
Or other testimony of summer nights. The nymphs are departed.
And their friends, the loitering heirs of city directors;
Departed, have left no address
By the waters of Leman I sat down and wept. . .
Sweet Thames, run softly till I end my song,
Sweet Thames, run softly, for I speak not loud or long.

A. The river bears no empty bottles, sandwich papers,
B. Silk handkerchiefs, cardboard boxes, fishing net strands
C. And their friends, the loitering heirs of city directors;
D. By the waters of Leman I sat down and wept. . .
