Read the passage from gulliver's travels.

there was a man born blind, who had several apprentices in his own condition: their employment was to mix colours for painters, which their master taught them to distinguish by feeling and smelling. it was indeed my misfortune to find them at that time not very perfect in their lessons, and the professor himself happened to be generally mistaken. this artist is much encouraged and esteemed by the whole fraternity.

which analysis does the passage support?

swift uses understatement to emphasize the talent of the artists.
swift uses understatement to highlight the beauty of the art.
swift uses a false premise to create humor.
swift uses a false premise to create pathos.
