Read the following passage from the waste land by t. s. eliot: ganga was sunken, and the limp leaves waited for rain, while the black clouds gathered far distant, over himavant. the jungle crouched, humped in silence. then spoke the thunder da datta: what have we given? which sentence best explains how an allusion in the passage affects its meaning? a. the poet assigns personalities to forces of nature, such as the jungle and the thunder; this is shown especially in the example of himavant, a hindu god that represents the himalaya mountains. b. ganga is another word for the ganges river, the most famous and most sacred river in india, in which devout hindus cleanse themselves, pay tribute, and scatter the ashes of the deceased. c. because eliot personifies the jungle and the thunder, we can assume that the clouds themselves have a motive — they form in the distance and refuse to drop rain, which mocks the dying jungle. d. by giving the thunder a speaking role, the poet further emphasizes the emptiness of a world that has been abandoned by people, which itself is a symbol of humanity's spiritual emptiness.
