Help?? Please it's English 9B 15. Which of the following choices best describes the language used in the extended simile comparing Odysseus to a musician as he strings the bow (lines 142–151, shown below)?

OpenStudy (rosedewittbukater):

"But the man skilled in all ways of contending, satisfied by the great bow’s look and heft, like a musician, like a harper, when with quiet hand upon his instrument he draws between his thumb and forefinger a sweet new string upon a peg: so effortlessly Odysseus in one motion strung the bow. Then slid his right hand down the cord and plucked it, so the taut gut vibrating hummed and sang a swallow’s note. (1 point)

harsh and strident rhythmic and fast flowing and harmonious resounding and celebratory I thought maybe flowing and harmonious.

19. In The Penelopiad, what does Penelope want to tell other women? (1 point) "Love is all you need." "Stand by your man." "Resist temptation." "Believe in yourself." This one I really don't know because I think it could be all of them. Maybe B or C?
