Respuesta :

Answer: D)  put off your journey until sunrise and sleep in your own bed

Explanation:

To tarry means to stay in a place for longer than the person had planned to. There is no passage attached but going by this definition, option D should be correct.

In telling the person to put off their journey, the speaker is telling the other person to stay home (judging by the suggestion that they sleep in their own bed) instead of travelling like they want to. The listener is therefore being implored to tarry till the sunrise.
