Answer:

It suggests that similar missionary work was causing conflict in other places as well.

Explanation:

In <em>The Man To Send Rain</em> by Marmon Silko, story is told about the beliefs of native American Indians and their conflict with the Christian belief.

Leon discovers his grandfather's body in the field, he wants to bury him according to the Indian customs but his wife Louise is of the opinion that the Catholic priest should be told so he can give him a befitting burial.

Father Paul believes the tradition of Pueblo rituals is pagan and as such, he cannot use the holy water in such a pagan ceremony.

In the process, Father Paul picks up a missionary magazine which suggests that there is other missionary work which are ongoing in other parts and facing opposition by the natives.

The Odyssey: Conflict and Theme, Part 4
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Patience has its rewards

Explanation:

The above answer is the correct answer.

From the passage, we discover that Odyssey exhibited patience. An evidence from the states that "And ah! how long, with what desire, I waited!  till, at the twilight hour..." This depicts that Odyssey was actually patient.

Then it was revealed what reward he got from being patient, "when one who hears  and judges pleas in the marketplace all day  between contentious men, goes home to supper,  the long poles at last reared from the sea."

So, we discover that despite the tossing from the billow and what he experienced under a bough, he still exhibited patience. The theme best shown by the conflict is that patience has its rewards.

AnnyKZ [126]
This is an example of dramatic irony. Only the readers of the poem are aware of how the character in the poem feels because she is thinking to herself. She is comparing how she sees the night sky as beautiful, but it is somebody else's tragedy.
