Hello. You forgot the answer options. The options are:
"Nature can be subdued through sheer human will. Nature is malicious, while humanity is well-intentioned. Nature is morally upright but is stained by humanity. Nature is indifferent to human suffering."
Answer:
Nature is indifferent to human suffering.
Explanation:
In the final paragraph we can see that nature is indifferent to human suffering. No matter the pain and despair that human beings face nature will remain strong, powerful and unbeatable.
We can see this because in the last paragraph of Melville's work, the ship sinks and the entire crew of that ship faces an agonizing death, even with the terrible death and despair of the crew, it is possible to observe the birds flying, indifferent to the suffering, as if nothing was happening.
