Question

Read the excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea.” And the Rat said, ‘I am too busy biting through the line that this old Fisherman is spinning. I do not play with the Sea.’ And he went on biting the line. Then the little girl-daughter put up her little soft brown arms with the beautiful white shell bracelets and said, ‘O Eldest Magician! when my father here talked to you at the Very Beginning, and I leaned upon his shoulder while the beasts were being taught their plays, one beast went away naughtily into the Sea before you had taught him his play. And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who see and are silent! What was the beast like?’ Which quotation from the passage is the best example of imagery? “I am too busy biting through the line that this old Fisherman is spinning. I do not play with the Sea.” “Then the little girl-daughter put up her little soft brown arms with the beautiful white shell bracelets.” “While the beasts were being taught their plays, one beast went away naughtily into the Sea before you had taught him his play.” “And the Eldest Magician said, ‘How wise are little children who see and are silent! What was the beast like?’”
