"o drug! " said i aloud, "what art thou good for? thou art not worth to me, no, not the taking off the ground; one of those knives is worth all this heap: i have no manner of use for thee; e'en remain where thou art, and go to the bottom, as a creature whose life is not worth saving." in the passage, crusoe compares money to a drug. explain some ways in which money was like a drug to crusoe before being shipwrecked. then, analyze the tone of the passage, and explain how the comparison create that tone. support your response with specific details from the passage.
