Read the following quote from the Odyssey.
Thus did Ulysses sleep, and the young men slept beside him. But the swineherd did not like sleeping away
from his pigs, so he got ready to go and Ulysses was glad to see that he looked after his property during
his master's absence.
Butler, Book 14
When Homer writes "his pigs," to whose pigs might the pronoun "his" be referring? Select all that apply.
A: Ulysses' pigs because they are actually his
B: the master's pigs because that is who the swineherd's boss is
C: the swineherd's pigs, in a sense, because he takes such a keen, personal interest in looking after his master Ulysses' possessions
D: the swineherd's pigs because he has full charge of them and thus feels genuine ownership
E: the swineherd's pigs because he sleeps with them and thus feels a familial connection with them
