What motivates Odysseus's men to ignore his orders to leave quickly?
A be
But on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly!
Out to sea again!' My men were mutinous,
fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after sheep
they butchered by the surf, and shambling cattle,
feasting, - while fugitives went inland, running
to call to arms the main force of Cicones.
-The Odyssey,
Homer
O They are seasick and want to stay on the island to
recover.
O They want to eat, drink, and enjoy themselves
before setting off on their journey.
O They do not want to work for Odysseus anymore.
