The three sensory words from the passage are: <em>dry, deserted, and damp.</em> Sensory words describe how we perceive the world, they are related to how we see, feel, smell, hear or taste things, so any word that describe how we sense the world is considered a sensory word. The word dry describes how we perceive the lack of humidity, maybe with our bare feet, the word deserted is almost a synonym for dry in this context, and the last sensory word is dam, which is an antonym  for dry and deserted because it expresses the excess of humidity.

In Book 9 of the Odyssey, Ulysses saves himself and his men by blinding Polyphemus. Which lines reflect the Cyclops's disappoint
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

<em>"Long since he menaced, such was Fate's command;</em>

<em>And named Ulysses as the destined hand.</em>

<em>I deem'd some godlike giant to behold,</em>

<em>Or lofty hero, haughty, brave, and bold;</em>

<em>Not this weak pigmy wretch, of mean design,</em>

<em>Who, not by strength subdued me, but by wine."</em>

In these lines, the Cyclops states that Fate had long commanded Ulysses to be the hand destined to defeat him. However, he was expecting this hero to be some enormous giant, or a brave and bold hero. Instead, he is disappointed to learn that Ulysses is a tiny being who defeated him not through strength, but by wit.
