In quantitative verse, often used in Greek or Latin, a dactyl is a long syllable followed by two short syllables, as determined by syllable weight.
So, I think the answer should be D Two road diverged in a wood, and I/ I took the one less traveled by.

Answer: A. Just for a handful of silver he left us / just for a riban to stick in his coat
