Answer:

The correct answer is C: payment.

Step-by-step explanation:

My love is such that rivers cannot quench,

Nor ought but love from thee give recompense.

In this verse, the author uses a metaphor to compare love with a transaction. She says her husband loves her so much that she will never be able to recompense him that love and that the only thing she will accept from him is his love.
