Ans 6:

the answer is d because raiper is a kind of sword and the highwayman had it.
Ans 7:

In my opinion, the answer should be option (D).In the second stanza, the lines "His pistol butts a-twinkle;", and "His rapier hilt a-twinkle" show that the Highwayman owned a pistol and a rapier. A pistol is a type of gun, which shows that the Highwayman has a pistol. Also, the Highwayman has a rapier, which is a kind of sharp, pointed sword.Thus, the Highwayman possesses both a sword and a gun, which means both option (A) and option (C) are correct answers. Thus, option (D) must be the right answer.
