a) symbols of their status
b) people who are unfaithful
c) individuals lacking sensitivity
d) objects to be possessed

D because the duke is almost showing the visitor pic of his former wife

D) objects to be possessed

Explanation:

You can see how the duke talks about the Duchess as if she was some sort of achievement than a person for him.

"Oh, sir, she smiled, no doubt,  

Whene’er I passed her; but who passed without  

Much the same smile? This grew; I gave commands;  

Then all smiles stopped together."

In "Life in a Love", the speaker doesn't seem to care about her wills:

"Escape me?  

Never—  

Beloved!  

While I am I, and you are you,  

So long as the world contains us both,  

Me the loving and you the loth,  

While the one eludes, must the other pursue. "
