Finley Nolan · Answer 1

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Parallelism shows the same grammatical balance of words or phrases in a sentence. In this case, the words "revenge, love, and justice" are abstract nouns about feelings and ideas that represent Dumas's work. For instance, the mention of these characteristics are linear and expressed in a equal grammatical way.
