Answer 1

I'd definitely say the last choice.

Answer 2

@Nurali, so you think the first choice is correct then?

Answer 3

Ya i think.

Answer 4

i think Erasmus thought that princes deserved their riches, but that clergy should be more modest.

Answer 5

Sure. What line in the passage suggests that, may I ask? I thought that the main focus of the passage was to criticize the clergy's sycophantic, shallow-minded, grovelling yet swaggering behavior.

Answer 6

I'm looking mainly at Lines 3-8. I can't seem to find a line that expresses the opinion that the princes deserve their riches. But I see a substantial amount of evidence that shows Erasmus's disdain for the clergy.
