What is a shifting meter?

Most poems include a shift, also called a turn, or the Italian word “volta,” which expresses a change in the poem. This shift could be as simple as a summary of the preceding lines, or it could be a dramatic transformation of the speaker's point of view. One way of identifying a rhetorical shift in a novel or poem is to look at the use of conjunction words, like but and therefore. This is usually an indication that there is some sort of shift in thought.

Therefore, (C) option is the correct answer.
