Answer:
Trapped.
Explanation:
The word "denotation" refers to the literal meaning of the given word. In this case, the denotative meaning of the word "bound" is "trapped".
Thomas Paine expressed his anger in his "The Crisis No. 1" when he talked of the British monarchy's <em>"right to bind us in all cases whatsoever"</em>. He then went on to say that <em>"if bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon the earth..."</em> Here, he used the word "bound" to refer to the act of being restrained, captured, kept captive, etc.
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
