Maggie has just read a soliloquy in which the play's antagonist challenges the gods with the following words: "Oh, gods, you cannot stop me now! No force of nature can halt my plan already in progress. Tonight, indeed, the king shall propose to Irnesta, although he knows not that her allegiance is already sworn to me. Ha! And then, when that weak and softhearted king has pledged his love to a serpent in disguise, I shall finally see my moment of sweet revenge!" What can Maggie learn from the antagonist's words?

A. That the antagonist worships and honors the gods and their laws.

B. That the antagonist secretly admires the king.

C. That Irnesta is really a horse in disguise.

D. That the antagonist feels that in the past he was wronged by the king.

    I'd say the answer is D.

    If it's not C, that leaves three answers. It's probably not A, because the character is almost immediately challenging the gods, and boasting their superiority. It's not B, either, because the antagonist calls the king weak and softhearted, and discusses a plan against the king, so the character probably doesn't admire the king. That just leaves D, which makes sense, because the character is plotting against the king, and discussing how the king is weak.
