Answer:

They jumped into the Atlantic Ocean

Explanation:

During the journey across the Atlantic, Olaudah Equiano describes what two of his "wearied countrymen" did which was to jump into the Atlantic Ocean because they preferred death than to be kept captive in such a manner and be treated less than dogs.

He described that the two men were chained together and thus decided to jump into the Ocean when there was a smooth sea and moderate wind. He also described that another chained person jumped in and many more would have followed suit if not for the intervention of the slave masters.

References to the Bible were not so necessary to the story. The Friar in the story plays more of accomplice than a holy man, though there are inferences that his help denoted that God was on their side. yet he performed spme acts of deceit that were not aligned with the church and references to bibe could create a conflict, so i think that the right answer is A) <span>religious matters were not to be discussed in plays during the elizabethan age</span>
