In this excerpt from the poem "old ironsides" by oliver wendell holmes, what is the meaning of the word tread?

her deck, once red with heroes' blood where knelt the vanquished foe, when winds were hurrying o'er the flood and waves were white below, no more shall feel the victor's tread, or know the conquered knee; —

crush

pace

quell

trudge

march

Trudge or March sounds the best

Hope this helps

march

Explanation:

March is the best choice here. The poem is about the decommission of the USS Constitution. It is a battleship so the victor's were all part of the military. The military would not be described as "trudging" when victorious. To keep the proud and respected image being created within the poem, the best choice for tread is march. The other options do not show the pride or military nature of those on the ship.
