Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon."
Which details most reveal the setting of the passage? Select
three options.
"the ruins of a great temple in the mid-city"
"rats are unclean, and there must have been many tribes
of them"
"in the heart of a ruin, behind a door that still opened"
I found it at last in the ruins of a great temple in the mid-city.
A mighty temple it must have been, for the roof was painted
like the sky at night with its stars--that much I could see,
though the colors were faint and dim. It went down into great
caves and tunnels-perhaps they kept their slaves there.
But when I started to climb down, I heard the squeaking of
rats, so I did not gorats are unclean, and there must have
been many tribes of them, from the squeaking. But near
there, I found food, in the heart of a ruin, behind a door that
still opened. I ate only the fruits from the jars-they had a
very sweet taste. There was drink, too, in bottles of glass-
the drink of the gods was strong and made my head swim.
After I had eaten and drunk, I slept on the top of a stone, my
bow at my side.
