The correct answer is the following: option A. The use of alliteration is the feature of Old English poetry that the modern translation maintained as shown in the excerpt. Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent of closely connected words.

In Old English poetry, the use of alliteration in the verses was a basic structural principle and not an occasionally used device.
