Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

<em>The right answer is letter C - </em><em>that the speaker is able to see and feel her faith in eveything that surrounds her.</em>

<em>In this poem the poet explains why she stays at home during sabbath instead of going to church. She describes how the choir is replaced by a bobolink and a sexton, and that she doesn't need to go anywhere in particular as the "orchard"  outside can be likened to church "dome". </em><em>Emily feels her faith is not bound to any place but rather it can be found in everything around her.</em>
