I inferred you're referring to the story "Sweetest Love, I Do Not Goe" by John Donne
Answer:
<u>The speaker wants to go away from his beloved as a "test run" for the separation they will experience at death. </u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
In this story piece, it is strongly believed that the speaker goes away in other to experience what was to come– their death.
Remember also, that they will not die at the same time, so test running their separation now would prepare them for a time when one of them will be left alive and alone.
I am pretty sure about the second excerpt, it directly shows gods' involvement in mortal affairs
Then thus Minerva in Laertes' ear:"Son of Arcesius, reverend warrior, hear!Jove and Jove's daughter first implore in prayer,Then, whirling high, discharge thy lance in air."
And I believe that the next correct answer is
“But, tell me who thou art? and what thy race?
Thy town, thy parents, and thy native place?
Or, if a merchant in pursuit of gain,
What port received thy vessel from the main?
Or comest thou single, or attend thy train?”
If my memory is correct... Odysseus had to get away from the Cyclops, so logically, wouldn't it be diligence, since he is trying to figure out how to get away from the Cyclops? I'm sorry if this isn't the best answer, I remember that my class covered Odysseus, but can't remember which grade I was in.
