Explanation:
In poetry and other types of literary works, the tone is mainly established through the description of the setting, the use of words and others that define the attitude of the author towards the elements described in the text and is also linked to the general atmosphere.
In the case of the poem "The Raven" by Edgar Alan Poe the tone in this is mainly dark and gloomy and this is mainly created in the section "Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—" because in this the setting is described "midnight dreary" which is linked to darkness and also the detail "while I pondered weak and weary" supports the general gloomy and dark tone of poem; besides this, these lines are the first ones in the poem and therefore the first element that describes and sets the tone that is preserved during all the poem.

Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he; But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door— Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door— Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

C. “But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping, / And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,”

C. The rhyme gives the poem an even rhythm and maintains the tension.
Explanation:
1. None of the other options give as much tension as these lines do. The anticipation and reptition of the lines intensify the action of approaching a chamber door.
2. I feel as though the other options don't quite work as well as this one. A rhyme doesnt necessarily make a poem easier to remember, lines that are more 'significant' is just subjective, and each rhyme doesnt necessarily end an idea.
