Explanation:

A lancet window is defined as a tall, narrow window with a pointed arch at the top, characteristic of Gothic architecture. Option a is incorrect as stained glass windows are about the glass (often with imagery) and not the window's architectural shape. Option c is incorrect as it's not tied to a specific window for Saint - Denis in this defining sense.

Answer:

B. a tall narrow window with a pointed arch at the top
