Question

Which quotation provides the strongest evidence to illustrate the point that Odysseus is an epic hero because he has a group of loyal followers who follow his orders? “Dear friends, / more than one man, or two, should know those things / Circe foresaw for us and shared with me, / so let me tell her forecast: then we die / with our eyes open, if we are going to die.” “Therefore / you are to tie me up, tight as a splint, / along the mast, lashed to the mast, / and if I shout and beg to be untied, / take more turns of the rope to muffle me.” “I carved / a massive cake of beeswax into bits / and rolled them in my hands until they softened.” “I tried to say / ‘Untie me!’ to the crew, moving my brows; / but they bent steady to the oars. Then Perimedes / got to his feet, he and Eurylochus, / and passed more line about, to hold me still.”
