Correct Option: C

The lines "I had not taken the first step in knowledge, I had not learnt to let go with the hands" is an example of assonance. Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds within a sentence or phrase. In this case, the repetition of the short "e" sound in "step," "let," and "the" is a clear example of assonance.
