Final answer:
The correct answer to the question is option (d) Sailor, indicating someone of a lower status compared to a prince. The reference to The Captain suggests a comical character in a play who is regarded as the leader of a ship's crew.
Step-by-step explanation:
The line "You're a prince, sire! Not a common sailor--!" suggests that the correct answer to the question is option (d) Sailor. This line likely comes from a play or a work of literature, where a character is being reminded of their higher status compared to a 'common sailor'.
The term 'sailor' generally refers to someone who works or is experienced in navigating or working on a ship. Comparatively, a prince would hold a much higher societal rank.
The character of The Captain described in the reference information appears to be part of a dramatic ensemble, donning a costume that reflects his purported, though perhaps exaggerated, bravery and his role as the leader of a ship's crew.
This description draws a humorous contrast to the reality of him being scared of everything, a common trope in certain styles of comedy.
