Asked by Zephyr Benedict

Choose the poem that uses anaphora.
A. She stands there like a beacon through the night,
A pale clear beacon where the storm-drift is--
She stands alone, a wonder deathly-white,
She stands there, patient nerved with inner might.
B. Again, I reply to the triple winds
running chromatic fifths of derision
outside my widow:
Play louder.

A.

The poem repeats the phrase "She stands" (and "She stands there") at the start of successive lines — a clear example of anaphora.
