Answer:

a) a composite

Step-by-step explanation:

A girl named Lucy appears to the poet in a vision in "Strange Fits of Passion Have I Known."

The horse's hoofs and the moon's rise and fall hypnotize the speaker. In this blend of real and imagined, his beloved's awful ending emerges. Despite his strong affection for her, they are both natural animals and subject to death and desire. Calling his envisioned death "kind" is a verbal irony. It could be a way for him to let go of his feelings or a morbid way to make love feel stronger.

This poetry is a mix of real-imagined. (Composite)
