    I believe the answer would be A. The author's use of kennings allows her to maintain the rhythm of each line of poetry.

    The definition of a kenning is a compound sentence using Old English and Old Norse poetry, and this is a phrasing choice made by the author. To recall, diction is defined as the author's choices in vocabulary or phrases in writing, speaking literarily, to enhance or give meaning to the sentences. Using the kenning was the author's specific choice, it seems, to write this poetry. Therefore the comment about diction is choice A.
