Which quotation best explains why the narrator
continues his journey to the Place of the Gods?
Read the
passage from "By the waters of Babylon."
Surely, that was enough to do, and live. Surely it was
enough to spend the night upon the cliff. The Forest
People themselves do not come near. Yet, all through
the night, I knew that I should have to cross the river
and walk in the places of the gods, although the gods
ate me up. My magic did not help me at all and yet
there was a fire in my bowels, a fire in my mind. When
the sun rose, I thought, "My journey has been clean.
Now I will go home from my journey." But, even as !
thought so, I knew I could not. If I went to the Place of
the Gods, I would surely die, but, if I did not go, I could
never be at peace with my spirit again. It is better to
lose one's life than one's spirit, if one is a priest and the
son of a priest.
"When the sun rose, I thought, 'My journey has been
clean."
"The Forest People themselves do not come near."
"I could never be at peace with my spirit again."
"My magic did not help me at all and yet there was a
fire."

Explanation:

edg.

The quotation that explains the reason why the narrator continues his journey is "I could never be at peace with my spirit again."

"By the Waters of Babylon" is a poem written by  Stephen Vincent Benet. The main theme of the poem is that the attainment of knowledge can be very fast.

The character John in the poem was very fascinated by the stories of god that were told to him by his father. He decided to become a priest and travel on a path for the same. He travels to the place of god even he feared death but he learned a lot of things there.

The poet says that he was sure that if he travels to the place of gods, he will die, but further mentions that he couldn't be in peace if he did not.

Therefore the correct statement that explains why the narrator continues his journey is "I could never be at peace with my spirit again." He traveled further to find peace.

Therefore the correct option is C.
