Which statements describe how Antinous is portrayed in this excerpt from Book 21 of the Odyssey? Antinous saw, and said: He said, but in his soul fond joys arise,
Nor stain with grief the pleasures of the day;
Nor to the royal heart recall in vain
The sad remembrance of a perish'd man.
Enough her precious tears already flow—
Or share the feast with due respect; or go
To weep abroad, and leave to us the bow,
No vulgar task! Ill suits this courtly crew
That stubborn horn which brave Ulysses drew.
I well remember (for I gazed him o'er
While yet a child), what majesty he bore!
And still (all infant as I was) retain
The port, the strength, the grandeur of the man."
And his proud hopes already win the prize.
To speed the flying shaft through every ring,
Wretch! is not thine: the arrows of the king
Shall end those hopes, and fate is on the wing!
He is trustworthy and loyal to Ulysses.
He wants to win the contest and take the place of Ulysses.
He wants to win the contest to win Penelope’s heart.
He mocks Ulysses's bravery and strength.

Antinous was the suitor who was the first to be killed by Odyssey. When Odyssey in disguise as a beggar asks for his turn to compete in the contest, Antinous and other suitors went against this. They feared that Odyssey would win the contest and Penelope too. Antinous wanted to start the contest the next day. He mocked at the Odyssey's request to participating in the contest.
At first he mocks the old man for wanting to try to string the bow and shoot. He goes further by saying that only Ulysses could string the bow and he witness how he was able to do it effortlessly and shot it with great accuracy. He was surprised at how easily the beggar strung the bow and shot it through the rings. At this point it was revealed that the old man was Ulysses and was no ready to take his revenge.
