Read the following passage from the Odyssey: Square in your ship’s path are Sirens, crying beauty to bewitch men coasting by; woe to the innocent who hears that sound! He will not see his lady nor his children in joy, crowding about him, home from sea; the Sirens will sing his mind away on their sweet meadow lolling. There are bones of dead men rotting in a pile beside them and flayed skins shrivel around the spot. From this passage, the reader is most likely to determine that Circe is A. advising Odysseus to visit the Sirens. B. praising the beauty of the Sirens. C. warning Odysseus about the Sirens. D. insulting the Sirens’ voices. Previous Next 13 / 18
