Odysseus does not clasp Nausicaa's knees because he is afraid he would frighten or offend her. So instead he talks to her and admires her beauty. Nausicaa feels that Odysseus does not want to harm her, so she decides to help him.

Answer: He is afraid he would frighten or offend her.

Explanation:

Although Odysseus wants to supplicate Naussicaa for help, he fears that clasping her knees might frighten her, him being a bulky naked mess and her a helpless youthful princess. Instead, he invokes the knee-clasp verbally ('I clasp tour knees, my queen') without touching her at all and keeping his distance.

Which of these excerpts from Dr. Seuss's book Bartholomew and the Ooobleck uses onomatopoeia?
Flauer [41]
<span>2. As he ran he could hear the "Plop! Plop!" of the oobleck on the windowpanes. It was pelting against the palace walls as big as greenish cup-cakes now! Plop is an example of onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is a word based on the sound associated with the word. Other examples include: buzz, meow, oink, splat. None of the other examples have these types of words.</span>
