How shall I tell what I saw? I went carefully, my strung bow in my hand, my skin ready for danger. There should have been the wailings of spirits and the shrieks of demons, but there were not. It was very silent and sunny where I had landed—the wind and the rain and the birds that drop seeds had done their work—the grass grew in the cracks of the broken stone. It is a fair island—no wonder the gods built there. If I had come there, a god, I also would have built. –“By the Waters of Babylon,” Stephen Vincent Benét What textual evidence supports the analysis that the setting develops the character’s bravery? “The grass grew in the cracks of the broken stone.” “There should have been the wailings of spirits and the shrieks of demons.” “It was very silent and sunny where I had landed.” “It is a fair island—no wonder the gods built there.”
