The statement that describes the allusion in these lines from Shakespeare's Hamlet is " Horatio refers to Roman soldiers who gave up their lives in allegiance to their emperor. " Option C is correct.

Allusion is defined as a brief and indirect reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance.

When employing allusion, the writer expects the reader to have enough knowledge to  identifythe allusion and comprehend its importance in a text.
