Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai.
They found themselves seated on benches before a table, with their legs swinging under them.
"You see," Goemon whispered to Manjiro, "the torture has begun."
It wasn't torture, exactly, but it wasn't very comfortable, either.
"Look at your legs hanging there," Goemon said.
"It is a strange way to sit!" Manjiro agreed.
"If you were a real samurai, you would commit seppuku now, rather than wait to be humiliated by the barbarians," Goemon said.
"Maybe they won’t humiliate us," Manjiro said hopefully.
At this, Goemon simply grunted.
What does the dialogue teach readers about Goemon’s attitude toward the barbarians?
He thinks they mean no harm.
He believes they are dangerous.
He is grateful for their help.
He sees them as heroic.
