In the King Ceyx and Alcyone, which statement from the text contradicts King Ceyx’s last words as the plot moves towards a conclusion?
That night Alcyone had a dream that her
husband had died at sea.
She said, "Poor sailor — and wife, if you are
married."
She walked into the sea to pick him up, and
when she got closer, she cried, "My husband,
why have you come back to me this way?"
She tried to drown herself, but instead of dying,
she started to rise and turned into a bird along
with her husband.
