The correct answer is:   [A]:

    " A dull and muddy-mettled rascal,

      peak,  

      Like John-a-dreams, unpregnant of

      my cause ;  "  .

Note:   A "simile" is a literary device, or figure of speech, that makes a comparison of something (e.g. noun, adverb, adjective) to another such thing; usually with the intent to make something sound vivid or extravagant;  and using EITHER the word "like" ; or "as" ; when making this "comparison".

Among the answer choices provided, the "first answer choice given" ; that is;  "Choice:  [A] "  is the only "answer choice given" ; that makes such a comparison, that uses the term, "like" .  

Note that "none" of the other answer choices given make such a comparison using the terms "like" or "as" .

Hope this answer — and explanation — are of help to you!
