    If only that top pattern could be gotten off from the under one! I mean to try it, little by little.

    It is so hard to talk to John about my case, because he is so wise, and because he loves me so.

    Answer: Option C.

    Explanation:

    Verbal Irony is a technique where the creator utilizes some particular words all together pass on an alternate significance, what the character says is inverse to what they are truly claiming to convey, In the Yellow Wallpaper, John is a specialist who doesn't completely see how to manage his better half's issues and she doesn't accept he is correct and yet she imagines so by giving him sure qualities.

    This option has been selected because there has been use of verbal irony because it says that John loves the speaker of the sentence but it is not the reality. The reality is the opposite so it is a case of verbal irony.
