Answer:

A ghost's

Explanation:

In this poem, we learn of the experience that the speaker had when he or she was about to die. We learn that she saw a carriage, and that the carriage took her away. After learning about other details, the speaker tells us that since that happened, it has been centuries. This shows that the speaker has been dead for a very long time, which means she is likely a ghost.
