Answer:

C). She longs to abandon her sensible nature.

Explanation:

In the given excerpt taken from 'King Arthur's Socks: A Comedy in One Act'(Part II), the author makes Guenevere say that she likes 'crazy fools' as 'she longs to abandon her sensible nature.' It connotes that she was willing to relinquish her rationality and sensibility for a while and have a break from her status as a married woman which reflects her attraction towards Lancelot. However, it was later suppressed by Guenevere herself as she recalled her traditional values and beliefs and gave priority to it. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
