Correct Answer:
A. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.
Explanation:
The saying, "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread," is not an epigram from Pope's "An Essay on Criticism." Instead, it is a proverb that Pope incorporated into "An Essay on Criticism," and it was later used by E.M. Forster as the title for his work, "Where Angels Fear to Tread." Therefore, option (a) is the correct choice.
