Select the correct text in the passage,
which lines in this excerpt from book 12 of homer's odyssey reveal that the monster scylla cannot be defeated in battle, even by a great warrior such
as ulysses?
ah, shun the horrid gulfl by scylla fly
'tis better six to lose, than all to die
"i then 'o nymph propitious to my prayer,
goddess divine my guardian power, declare,
is the foul fiend from human vengeance freed?
or if i rise in arms can scylla bleed?
"then she wom by toils. obroke in fight,
still are new toils and war thy dire delight?
will martial fames for ever fire thy mind
and never never be to heaven resign'd?
how vain thy efforts to avenge the wrong!
deathless the post impenetrably strong!
furious and fell tremendous to beholdt
en with a look she withers all the bold!
she mocks the weak attempts of human might
oh hy her ragolthy conquest is thy flight
if but to see thy arms thou make delay
