Answer:

J. Verbal Irony

Explanation:

War is Kind is a poem by Steven Crane.

The poem begins with the speaker telling a maiden not to weep -

Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind

The technique used here is verbal irony.

Verbal Irony: This is a literary technique that occurs when a speaker says something that contrasts with what he means; his actions and emotions.

Verbal irony was used on the line above.

The speaker is very much aware of the brutality and unkind nature of war but still describes war as a kind phenomenon and tells the maiden not to weep.
