Which three words or phrases in this excerpt from elizabeth bishop's "the fish" compare the fish to an old, experienced soldier?

I'm gonna guess "a five-haired beard of wisdom". Because wisdom seems to be closest to clever. Let me know if i'm right, and mark me brainliest!!

b. is correct just got it right.

step-by-step explanation:

for me, i'd go with (c) satisfied or (b) overjoyed because if you read it a couple of times, it makes since that it is c or b. it can't b (a) angry because booker was never angry about anything. at the end of the paragraph, booker states, "i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i " i think that sentence kind of gives away the also, some words in the paragraph can also you like for example, "indulged," "calmly," "perplexity," "privilege," and defining words that you don't know, can you understand more of that paragraph and it can also increase your comprehension. : )

i'm really rally sorry if i'm incorrect, but if i'm hope this ! : )
