Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. What does this excerpt most suggest about the beliefs of
the ancient Greeks?
Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining.
O They believed that nature's strength was wholly
uncontrollable.
O They believed that nature's wrath could never be
overcome.
O They believed that the gods were frequently unfair in
their actions.
They believed that the gods often punished people for
acting badly.
