What does the fabled fairyland symbolize in this paragraph from the passage?
We had such glimpses of the Rhone gliding along between its grassy banks; of cosy cottages buried in flowers and shrubbery; of quaint old red-tiled villages with mossy medieval cathedrals looming out of their midst; of wooded hills with ivy-grown towers and turrets of feudal castles projecting above the foliage; such glimpses of Paradise, it seemed to us, such visions of fabled fairyland!
heaven
medieval times
future civilizations
the Rhone river

I’d say that the correct answer is the first option. In this passage from “The Innocence Abroad” by Mark Twain, the “fabled fairyland” symbolizes Heaven. As it is stated in passage above, they have seen the glimpses of Paradise that, as it seemed to them, is compared to fable fairyland: “…such glimpses of Paradise, it seemed to us, such visions of fabled fairyland!”

The answer is A: heaven.

Mark Twain had already previously stated "such glimpses of Paradise," and Paradise is another word for heaven. Also, 'fabled fairyland' sounds like something up in the clouds, ecstasy, etc., and the only word that would fit in that circumstance is heaven. I hope this helps!
