D. In the study of spoken sounds, it concerns intonation, pitch, stress, rhythm etc.
E. In the study of discourse, it concerns the content and delivery.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The correct answer is B and D only.

Let us understand why these statements are correct by looking at the definition and scope of Prosody:
Prosody is the study of the rhythm, intonation, stress, and structure of language, particularly in poetry and speech.

Let us analyze each statement individually:
Statement A: "In the study of novel, it concerns narrative technique." - This is incorrect. Narrative techniques in novels are studied under narratology, not prosody.
Statement B: "In the study of poetry, it concerns meter and other techniques of versification." - This is correct. In literary studies, prosody is specifically the systematic study of metrical structures, rhyme schemes, and versification in poetry.
Statement C: "In the study of drama, it concerns theatrical devices." - This is incorrect. Theatrical devices, staging, and performance elements belong to the domain of dramaturgy and theatre studies.
Statement D: "In the study of spoken sounds, it concerns intonation, pitch, stress, rhythm etc." - This is correct. In linguistics, prosody refers to the acoustic and auditory features of spoken language, such as pitch variations, stress patterns, intonation, and rhythm, which convey emotional state, emphasis, or sentence structure.
Statement E: "In the study of discourse, it concerns the content and delivery." - This is incorrect. Discourse analysis is focused on how language is used in texts and contexts, while prosody is limited to the phonological and metrical structures rather than the overall discourse content and delivery mechanisms.

Therefore, only statements B and D are correct, making "B and D only" the right choice.
