Understatement. Because, under means below or low. "An idea that is played down"
Explanation:
I could not find the excerpt that is missing in your question but I will try to help you with some pieces of information.
For matching those excerpts with the epic characteristic first of all you need to know are those standard characteristics of epic that are mentioned in many epic poems and novels.
- One of the most important things in epic are heroes. They are also historical and legendary part of every story. Epic stories have long setting. Also, one of the characteristics are supernatural forces and heroes such as angels. In many epic poem there is hero who is less stronger that his enemy, but the supernatural force is bringing him the victory against the enemy.
The answer is population.
Small states wanted everyone to have equal representation no matter what the size or population. Large states wanted representation based on population. As a result they came up with the Great Compromise which is how we have the House of Representatives and the Senate today. The House's number of representatives are based off of a states' population and the Senate has 2 representatives in every state.

Stanza 1: It was a hot day in June and the poet’s mother sees a bear dancing at the schoolyard to the tunes being played on a whistle pipe by the keeper. The keeper held the chains and bar to control the bear.
Stanza 2: All the children enjoyed the show put up by the bear. It lifted its feet up in the air and made poses in the heat.
Stanza 3: The bear had several tricks up its sleeve. It acted as it died for the Queen, it marched and also did somersaults. All these acts were witnessed by the children.
Stanza 4: Once the act was over, the keeper went around the crowd with the bear and a begging cup. This brought the laughter to a stop.
Stanza 5: Everyone gave a penny to the keeper but it was not for the antics of the bear. It was for the longing for forests and snow that they saw within the bear’s eyes.
