So let me tell [Circe’s] forecast: then we die with our eyes open, if we are going to die,
or know what death we baffle if we can. Sirens
weaving a haunting song over the sea
we are to shun, she said, and their green shore
all sweet with clover; yet she urged that I
alone should listen to their song. Therefore
you are to tie me up, tight as a splint,
erect along the mast, lashed to the mast,
and if I shout and beg to be untied,
take more turns of the rope to muffle me.’

What conclusion about Odysseus (the speaker) is best supported by the excerpt?

He trusts Circe’s advice.
He remembers the Sirens.
He questions his men’s strength.
He believes they will succeed.
