Read the passage. Then, identify the theme that is
supported by the passage.
With crack on crack of thunder, Zeus let fly
a bolt against the ship, a direct hit,
so that she bucked, in reeking fumes of sulphur,
and all the men were flung into the sea.
They came up 'round the wreck, bobbing a while
like petrels on the waves.
No more seafaring
homeward for these, no sweet day of return;
the god had turned his face from them.
- The Odyssey,
Homer
Most ships cannot survive a terrible thunderstorm.
The ocean is an angry beast that will tame any who
try to control it.
The gods have the power to control human destiny.
Men are willing to die to eat the delicious cattle of
the gods.

That time of year thou mayst in me behold when yellow leaves, or none, or few do hang upon those boughs which shake against the cold, bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang in me thou sees the twilight of such day as after sunset fadeth in the west; which by and by black night doth take away, death's second self that seals up all in rest. in me thou seest the glowing of such fire that on the ashes of his youth doth lie, as the deathbed whereon it must expire, consumed with that which it was nourished by. this thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong, to love that well, which thou must leave ere long. the first stanza compares the leafless limbs of a tree to a. yellow leaves b. sweet birds c. bare choirs d. summer
