Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Milton's Areopagitica appeared in 1644, Defoe's The Shortest Way with the Dissenters in 1702, Swift's A Modest Proposal in 1729 and Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France in 1790. Arranged by these dates, Milton comes first and Burke last. Sequences that place Defoe or Swift before Milton, or Burke before Defoe and Swift, break this order.
