Solution

The correct option is A borrow
The correct answer is Option A.
When we take money from someone, we are BORROWING money from that person.
In the given sentence, the person has lost his purse, and therefore he is asking if he could borrow money.
The remaining options are incorrect because:
HIRE is when a rent is paid for usage of something. It is not used for money.
DEMAND means to ask for something, it is more as a right.
LOAN is borrowing money for which interest is paid. There is no such mention of interest in the given sentence.
Thus Option A is the correct answer.
