Which quotation from "The Black Cat" best supports the idea that the narrator is tormented by the cat?
A."Yet, mad am I not--and very surely do I not dream. But to-morrow I die, and to-day I would unburthen my soul."

C."And now I was indeed wretched beyond the wretchedness of mere Humanity."
D."Alas! neither by day nor night knew I the blessing of Rest any more!"

Option D is the correct choice. It indicates, better than the other options, how the narrator is unable to enjoy a simple nights rest. The usage of "alas" shows that this was the final straw in the torment, not being able to sleep anymore. Compared to option A where the narrator is still able to state clearly that they are not mad. Option B only shows a dislike which doesn't stress the torment requirement from the question. Option C does show torment but it more so indicates the early stages of this happening.

Answer:

The answer is D. Alas! Neither by day nor night knew I the blessing of rest any more
