"O my Hiawatha!
Is there anything can harm you?
Anything you are afraid of?"
But the wary Hiawatha
Paused awhile, as if uncertain,
Held his peace, as if resolving,
And then answered, "There is nothing,
Nothing but the bulrush yonder,
Nothing but the great Apukwa!"
And as Mudjekeewis, rising,
Stretched his hand to pluck the bulrush,
Hiawatha cried in terror,
Cried in well-dissembled terror,
"Kago! kago! do not touch it!"
"Ah, kaween!" said Mudjekeewis,
"No indeed, I will not touch it!"

Which inference is most clearly justified by these lines?
A. Hiawatha is afraid of the bulrush.
B. Hiawatha is trying to trick Mudjekeewis.
C. Bulrushes were thought to be poisonous.
D. Mudjekeewis is planning to attack Hiawatha.

The Inference that is most clearly justified by these lines is - Hiawatha is afraid of the bulrush. Therefore option A is the correct resposne.

Iroquois Confederacy co-founder Hiawatha, also known as Ayenwathaaa or Aiionwatha, was a pre-colonial Native American chieftain. He served as either the Mohawk or Onondaga people's chief. Some versions claim that he was an Onondaga by birth but was raised by Mohawks.

Hiawatha (Ojibwa: "He Makes Rivers") was a mythological chief of the Onondaga tribe of North American Indians who lived about the year 1450. According to Indian history, he is responsible for the creation of the Iroquois Confederacy. Hiawatha was the epitome of human development and civilization in his marvelous persona.

In the pre-colonial history of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) people of what is now southern Ontario and upper New York, Hiawatha played a significant role (ca. 1400-1450). He is most well-known for creating a political confederacy of the Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, and Mohawk Tribes.
