What does the following passage (paragraph 8) reveal about the onlookers?
His only supernatural virtue seemed to be patience. Especially during the first days, when the hens pecked at him, searching for the stellar
parasites that proliferated in his wings, and the cripples pulled out feathers to touch their defective parts with, and even the most merciful
threw stones at him, trying to get him to rise so they could see him standing. The only time they succeeded in arousing him was when they
burned his side with an iron for branding steers, for he had been motionless for so many hours that they thought he was dead. He awoke
with a start, ranting in his hermetic language and with tears in his eyes, and he flapped his wings a couple of times, which brought on a
whirlwind of chicken dung and lunar dust and a gale of panic that did not seem to be of this world. Although many thought that his reaction
had not been one of rage but of pain, from then on they were careful not to annoy him, because the majority understood that his passivity
was not that of a hero taking his ease but that of a cataclysm in repose.
O A. When the people see the old man cry, they instantly regret treating him so poorly.
OB. They are only interested in how the old man could benefit them.
O C. The people look at the "angel" with awe and admiration, feeling blessed by his presence.
D. They recognize his extreme patience and long-suffering as angelic virtues.
