Yet, there he was, still with a sparkling hope and knew that the truth must prevail. In the cold, dark and damp cell he never for a moment lost faith in God and goodness and was waiting anxiously for an angel to come, plead non-guilty for him and free him of his miseries.

In the dark dungeon, he always waited for ______.

• A. his mother
• B. the jailer
• C. the verdict freeing him of his miseries
• D. the angel to come and plead for him

Answer 1

The correct option is D the angel to come and plead for him

Option D is the right answer because it is clearly mentioned in the passage that - 'In the cold, dark and damp cell he never for a moment lost faith in God and goodness and was waiting anxiously for an angel to come, plead non-guilty for him and free him of his miseries.'

There is no evidence in the passage to suggest that Options A, B, and C are the right answers.

Hence, these are incorrect.
