Read the excerpt from the odyssey.
but when he knew he heard
odysseus' voice nearby, he did his best
to wag his tail, nose down, with flattened ears,
having no strength to move nearer his master.
and the man looked away,
wiping a salt tear from his cheek:

what does the dog, argus, represent in this excerpt?
a)loyalty
b)sadness
c)illness
d)ignorance

A)loyalty

In the passage the dog is not well enough to run to Odysseus and show his excitement. However, it does say he "did his best to wag his tail." This shows Argus' love and loyalty to his master. It is also clear that Odysseus feels love and loyalty to his dog when he must look away "wiping a salt tear from his cheek." Seeing Argus in distress also causes an emotional reaction from Odysseus.
