passage two ("the gods gave their assent...") from the story of Hercules provides the best textual evidence for the statement.
the statement is "the labors of hercules symbolize the resurrection of the human soul". sentences that support this are:
"...at seeing the champion of the earth so brought to his end."
"i shall take him, dead to earth, to the heavenly shores."
the textual evidence from the text implicates that someone or something has died. this goes with the statement.
author's note: yes, this answer is a bit late. i just wanted to send this so that when other students look for the answer to this question, they'll see something that's maybe a little more helpful.
<em>if you have any confusion, please reach out to me and i'll try to help you as best as i can :).</em>
