Death's sigh was loud but unheard because in a tomb no one is alive to hear it.

PunIntended

Answer:

C

Explanation:

I'm assuming the underlined part is "with a heavy sigh like wind through a tomb".

Here, the simile is comparing Death's sigh to a wind through a tomb. Obviously, wind can be quite loud. However, since there's no one alive in a tomb to hear this sigh, it will go "unheard".

This matches the answer choice C.

Hope this helps!
