Answer

The speaker is walking in no particular direction, reflecting on the wonders of life best describes the dramatic situation of Whitman's "Song of the Open Road".

Explanation:

The speaker of Walt Whitman's "Song of the Open Road" is walking in no direction. He is carefree, with the mindset that no one is in control of his life and fate and nothing will change that. whatever he does will be the consequence of his own actions and no one else. He is contend with himself and whatever extra is needed, the world will provide. He's not saying that there are no worries but rather, though the road of life be full of troubles and problems, instead of worrying, it is best to deal with the problems as they come and not stress about it beforehand.

in my opinion i think it was not excessive at all. the maids turned against the queen in his absence, how could he ever trust them again? if he let them go they would surely spread the news of the suitor's deaths, which is much too risky. as for the suitors, they were selfish, rude, and greedy. the god's had apparently marked them for death, meaning odysseus made their death come faster.
