    The correct answer is D. "And 'mid this tumult Kubla heard from far/Ancestral voices ... "

    Narrative poetry is telling us a story - it is full of narration, events, and something is going on. Unlike lyrical poetry, which is more about opinions, descriptions, and feelings, narrative poetry is more about something actually happening. Examples A, B, and C are all lyrical poetry, whereas D is narrative.

    As for me, the best example of narrative poetry is definitely D. "And 'mid this tumult Kubla heard from far/Ancestral voices ... ". It cannot be the third option that you choose because it's from ' She walks in beauty' which is a lyric poetry. I think you will agree with me.
