n blows come to a man, and he defending his own cattle – his own cows and lambs. Here it was otherwise. Antinous hit me for being driven on by hunger – how many bitter seas men cross for hunger! If beggars interest the gods, if there are Furies pent in the dark to avenge a poor man's wrong, then may Antinous meet his death before his wedding day!" –The Odyssey, Homer Based on the passage, what is the best prediction about what will become of Antinous?

In these lines, we see that Antinous was rude to Odysseus because he was disguised as a beggar. Everyone, including the suitors, believe this to be a bad action. Odysseus does so as well, and in these lines he reproaches Antinous. He tells us that the beggar is only there out of hunger, and that many men have crossed oceans due to hunger. He also hopes that Antinous dies soon.

The best prediction of what will become of Antinous is that he will probably die first, as Odysseus is planning to kill all the suitors and he has now wished he was dead. The detail that supports this prediction is the statement "<em>if there are Furies pent in the dark to avenge a poor man's wrong, then may Antinous meet his death before his wedding day!</em>"

Answer:

  • Antinous is going to die.
  • The passage that supports this prediction is:  "May Antinous meet his death before his wedding day".

Explanation:

Antinous is Penelope's most violent and selfish suitor. He treats odysseus (disguised as a beggar) very badly, showing all his arrogance and wickedness. Odysseus kills all suitors, and Antinous is the first to die. The death of Antinous is predicted in the phrase:  <em> "May Antinous meet his death before his wedding day".</em>
