The lines represented by $5x^2-xy-5x+y=0$ are normals to a circle $S=0$. If this circle touches the circle $S^{\prime} \equiv x^2+y^2-2x+2y-7=0$ externally,then the equation of the chord of contact of the centre of $S^{\prime}=0$ with respect to $S=0$ is

  • A
    $2y-7=0$
  • B
    $x-1=0$
  • C
    $3x+4y-7=0$
  • D
    $x+y=5$
