Explanation:

Accost- approach and address (someone) boldly or aggressively Canonize- (in the Roman Catholic Church) officially declare (a dead person) to be a saint. Emollient- having the quality of softening or soothing the skin Accost is a verb, but we need a noun as the word is followed by the preposition “of”. Hence, in the given context a word like “legend” would be more appropriate. Canonized fits well with the context of the Church of Rome. Again, “emollient” is an adjective, but we require a verb to show what the new cult would do to the memory of Hus. Thus, words synonymous as well as opposite in meaning to “strengthen” can be used. Option B is the correct answer.
