Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Who is the speaker In this excerpt from Book 13 of Homer's Odyssey, and what inference can you make from the tone?
Shall then no more, O sire of gods! be mine
The rights and honours of a power divine?
Scorn'd e'en by man, and (oh severe disgrace!)
By soft Phaeacians, my degenerate racel
Against yon destined head in vain I swore,
And menaced vengeance, ere he reach'd his shore;
To reach his natal shore was thy decree;
Mild I obey'd, for who shall war with thee?
Behold him landed, careless and asleep.
From all the eluded dangers of the deep:
Lo where he lies, amidst a shining store
of brass, rich garments, and refulgent ore;
And bears triumphant to his native Isle
A prize more worth than Ilion's noble spoil.
