The correct option is A king
Nominative case is the "subject" of the sentence i.e the person/ thing that carries out the verb/action in the sentence. In the given sentence: The word, kind in option A, is an adjective and not a noun. The word, clothes in option B is a common noun. However, this word is not in nominative case as the clothes do not perform any action.
The word, people in option C is a common noun. However, this word is not the noun in nominative case as it is not performing any action.
The word, king in option D, is a common noun. It performs the action of "distributing clothes and jewels" . Hence, this is in nominative case. Hence Option D is the correct answer.
