    D. For the reader to feel the rhythm of the marching echoed in the silently reading poem

    Explanation:

    The meter of the poem mimics the rhythm of the marching of the soldiers. It alternates between stressed and unstressed syllables almost as though it's beating a drum to keep time with the soldiers' steps.
