Which sentence from Defoe's Robinson Crusoe best illustrates the concepts found in the Great Chain of Being? A. I had never hand
led a tool in my life; and yet, in time, by labour, application, and contrivance, I found, at last, that I wanted nothing but I could have made it, especially if I had had tools (60). B. I found also that the island [after the shipwreck] I was in was barren, and, as I saw good reason to believe, uninhabited, except by wild beasts, of whom, however, I saw none (46). C. [A]nd though, [Crusoe's father] said, he would not cease to pray for me, yet he would venture to say to me that if I did take this foolish step, God would not bless me (3). D. I smiled to myself at the sight of this money. "O drug!" said I aloud, "what art thou good for? Thou art not worth to me, no, not the taking off the ground; one of those knives is worth all this heap" (50).
