Select the correct text in the passage. Which two pairs of lines in this excerpt from Homer's Iliad contain epithets about Helen? To Helen's bed the gods alone assign Hermione, to extend the regal line; . . . A golden distaff gave to Helen's hand; And that rich vase, with living sculpture wrought, . . . He ceased; a gush of grief began to rise: Fast streams a tide from beauteous Helen's eyes; . . . At Helen's beck prepare the room of state; Beneath an ample portico they spread . . . In this suspense bright Helen graced the room; Before her breathed a gale of rich perfume.

Answer:

The most accurate parts that contains an epithet is "And that rich vase, with living sculpture wrought" and "Before her breathed a gale of rich perfume."

Explanation:

Take into account that an epithet is known as any phrase or word which is used to describe an attibuted quality. In these examples from the text we can see how a rich vase takes place to describe Helen's attractive figure. In addition to this, "a gale of rich perfume"could be understood as Helen's scent which makes men feel attracted by her.
