So I went down to the sea beach and the ship,
where I found all my other men on board, 120
weeping, in despair along the benches.
Sometimes in farmyards when the cows return
well-fed from pasture to the barn, one sees
the pens give way before the calves in tumult,
breaking through to cluster about their mothers, 125

or all the gods in bliss; we have more force by far.

The reason many are wrong for so many people is because the questions are mixed and different. The only person who posted their answers for a test like this correctly is ??????. You can't just put the letters of the answers and not the actual answers themselves since there's no guarantee that they're correct since there are so many different answers for different questions.
