Which pair of works is associated with the sestina form in the material?

• A. Towards Autumn and Forage Sestina.
• B. Here I Have Returned and Towards Autumn.
• C. Forage Sestina and Here I Have Returned.
• D. Towards Autumn and Here I Have Returned.

Answer: (A)

The question is about recognizing a pair of works that the material groups together to illustrate the sestina form. A sestina is a fixed, six-stanza poem that uses a repeating pattern of end-words, and in the material it's shown alongside a piece whose title explicitly includes the form. Here, the work titled Forage Sestina clearly signals the sestina, and the material pairs it with Towards Autumn in the same discussion of this form. That pairing demonstrates the connection between the two works and the sestina form, which is why this duo is the best fit. The other pairings don’t share that direct linkage in the material, so they don’t align with the association the question is asking about.
