Answer:
That the woman would be willing to breed children to sell.
Explanation:
"A Modest Proposal" is a satirical essay written by Jonathan Swift in 1729. The purpose of this essay was to bring to light the impoverished conditions of the Irish people.
Swift has satirically asked the Irish women to breed their children till the age one and sell them to the rich people for food. This way these Irish people will be able to ease the economic conditions of England.
This satirical hyperbole essay was written not to take the words literally but it was a mock on the lack of any British Policies for impoverished Irish and on the heartless and rich people of England.
The false premise of the given excerpt is that a woman should bear and feed her children only to be given to rich people for food to earn money. Swift does not literally mean to ask women to sell their children for food to the rich.
