Read the poem and answer the question Here stood our ancestral homeThe crumbling wall marks the spot Here a sheep was led to the slaughter To appease the goods and atone For fauilts which our destiny Has blossomed into crimes There my cursed father once stood And shouted to us, his children To come back from our play To our evening meal and sleep. The sheep was led to the slaughter
A. to prepare their evening meal B. because it was a troublesome sheep C. because their father was a butcher D. as a sacrifice to their gods
