Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

This is a hard question!. Two are obviously true:
- A: true; Exact rhymes: thee/be/luxury; sea/thee
- C: true; three stanzas!.

One is undeniable:
- D: probably true; Eden/sea/thee; port/chart

One is deniable:
- B: well!.!.!. the verse is loose but definitely rhythmic (see below)

So if I had to pick one!.!.!.
- I would pick B!. I don't consider this free verse, but the slant rhymes are there!. In a poem this short, anyone can deny that all lines 2 and 4 of a stanza must rhyme, and could then call the slant rhymes a coincidence; but I guess you pick from the answers you have, not the ones you want!.

Here's how I scanned the poem, if you're wondering why I think the verse is loose but not free:

```` Wild nights! Wild nights!
-`-` Were I with thee,
-`-` Wild nights should be
-`-` Our luxury!

`--` Futile the winds
--`-` To a heart in port,--
`--`- Done with the compass,
`--` Done with the chart!.

`--`- Rowing in Eden!
`-` Ah! the sea!
`--` Might I but moor
-`-` To-night in thee!

Edit: also, please don't be offended, but it's really important to spell the poet's name Dickinson, because she actually wrote a poem saying she won't correct you if you do it wrong-- so her name is really more your responsibility than, say, with Shakespeare, who didn't care and sometimes wrote Shake-spear and was totally ambivalent about the final `e!.'Www@QuestionHome@Com
