The correct answer is C. And when men trust in her she then will fail / And cover her bright face as with a cloud. What he is trying to say is that fortune, in this context it being luck and not wealth, does not favor those who rely on it and that when you most need it it will abandon you. That is why it's unreliable and not something that smart people rely on.
