Read these lines from the poem.

Thus I am lord of the Desert Land,

And I will not leave my bounds,

To crouch beneath the Christian’s hand,

And kennel with his hounds:

What do these lines suggest about how the Bushman views the white man?


He appreciates the white man for sharing his knowledge with others.


He disrespects the white man for his inability to survive in nature.


He admires the white man for his ability to take control of situations.


He resents the white man for his disrespectful treatment of others.
