Read the passage from "by the waters of babylon.' toward the setting of the eighth sun, i came to the banks of the great river. it was half-a-day's journey after i had left the god-road-we do not use the god-roads now for they are falling apart into great blocks of stone, and the forest is safer going. a long way off, i had seen the water through trees but the trees were thick. at last, i came out upon an open place at the top of a cliff. there was the great river below, like a giant in the sun. it is very long, very wide. it could eat all the streams we know and still be thirsty. its name is ou-dis-sun, the sacred, the long. no man of my tribe had seen it, not even my father, the priest. it was magic and i prayed. which details from the text best support the idea that the narrator is cautious in this new setting? select two options. 'they are falling apart into great blocks of stone, and the forest is safer going.' 'there was the great river below, like a giant in the sun. it is very long, very wide.' 'it could eat all the streams we know and still be thirsty. its name is ou-dis-sun, the sacred, the long.' 'toward the setting of the eighth sun, i came to the banks of the great river.' 'no man of my tribe had seen it, not even my father, the priest. it was magic and i prayed.'
