The reference to Neptune in this line of "The Olympic Swimmer." is most likely intended as a mythological allusion.

When refering to Neptune, the author of "The Olympic Swimmer" is alluding  the god of freshwater and the sea in Roman religion. He is the counterpart of the Greek god Poseidon. Neptune was the brother of Jupiter and Pluto; the brothers presided over the realms of Heaven, the earthly world, and the Underworld. Salacia was his wife.

I'd say the correct answer is D - mythological. Because Neptune is the god of freshwater and the sea in Roman mythology, and he has a counterpart in Greek mythology - Poseidon.

REREAD Reread lines 294-323. After reading this background
ExtremeBDS [4]

From Thomas Putman's description, presented along these lines, we can see that he will have the effect of increasing the problems caused by the trials to benefit from it.

Thomas Putman is a character from "The Crucible." As we read lines 294-323, we can see a detailed description of who he is. From this description, we can infer that:

  • He is a rich and greedy man.
  • He has a strong grudge against Salem because he rejected his brother-in-law as a reverend.
  • He is very vindictive and doesn't bother to cause trouble as long as his wishes are met.

These characteristics come true when accusations of witchcraft start in town. Thomas Putman instigates accusations, claims that there is witchcraft in Salem, accuses people, and encourages the chaos in the city after the accusations and trials.
