b. marries Federigo because of his merit and noble birth

Explanation:

In the story "The Falcon of Don Federigo," by Giovanni Boccacio, Federigo wastes his family fortune by trying to impress Monna Giovanna and is left broke. However, as Monna Giovanna's dying son wishes to have Federigo's falcon (almost the last thing he owns), she visits Federigo and invites herself to dinner. However, in her honor, Federigo serves her a dish of the roast falcon her son wants. Eventually, her son dies and she marries Federigo, who has demonstrated to be trustworthy and devoted to her.
