Read the point that is being made and the illustration that follows it.Point: Gilgamesh is a courageous leader.Illustration: Enkidu is frightened of Humbaba and wants to turn back, but he tells Gilgamesh, "You go into the dreadful forest, you kill Humbaba and win the fame.”
Answer
A
Enkidu also tells Gilgamesh that he “will return now to great-walled Uruk” and that all men will know he has been a coward.
B
Although Enkidu fears for his own life, he is thoughtless and does not necessarily fear for the lives of others.
C
Enkidu is deeply fearful of Humbaba, and he strongly believes that Gilgamesh has the courage and ability to defeat Humbaba alone.
D
This proves that Enkidu does not believe that anyone can defeat Humbaba, even if he thinks Gilgamesh should at least try.
