Imet a traveler from an antique land who said: two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert. near them, on the sand, half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown, and wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, tell that its sculptor well those passions read which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things, the hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; and on the pedestal these words appear: "my name is ozymandias, king of kings: look on my works, ye mighty, and despair! " nothing beside remains. round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare the lone and level sands stretch far away. choose the phrase that best reveals what the traveler understands about the king that the statue portrays.
a. sneer of cold command
