Read the following quote from leslie marmon silko’s story "the man to send rain clouds." the priest stared down at his scuffed brown loafers and the worn hem of his cassock. "for a christian burial it was necessary." his voice was distant, and leon thought that his blue eyes looked tired. "it's o. k., father, we just want him to have plenty of water." the priest sank down into the green chair and picked up a glossy missionary magazine. he turned the colored pages full of lepers and pagans without looking at them. "you know i can't do that, leon. there should have been the last rites and a funeral mass at the very least." based on this excerpt, what can be inferred about father paul’s feelings? (a) he secretly feels frustrated that leon and the pueblo people hold on to their traditional beliefs. (b) he hopes to convince the pueblo people to convert from their traditional beliefs to christianity. (c) he is upset because he is unable to stand up to leon’s demands and manipulations. (d) he is discouraged because leon does not view the holy water as a holy symbol.

(D) He is discouraged because Leon does not view the holy water as a holy symbol.

Leon sees the holy water as just water. His traditional values tell him that if you put water on the grave it will give the dead water in the afterlife. This may result in the dead sending the much needed rain clouds their way. The priest recognizes that Leon has asked him to be a part of this traditional ceremony but is frustrated that what should be a holy symbol is recongized as being special, but not as a holy symbol.

"(D) He is discouraged because Leon does not view the holy water as a holy symbol".

Explanation:

He felt good as the deed has been successfully done and he felt pleasure when the holy water was sprinkled. This further ensures that the old man is capable of sending the big thunder clouds with surety. He does not feel frustrated when Leon and Pueblo people hold on to the traditional beliefs. Satisfaction and pleasure defines his feelings in the most probable way.
