Please answer this question.
This question is from Three Questions by Leo Tolstoy.
King:
- inquisitive- 'But still wishing to find the right answers to his questions,'
- considerate- 'he had it proclaimed throughout his kingdom that he would give a great reward to any one who would teach him what was the right time for every action,'
'So the King put on simple clothes, and before reaching the hermit's cell dismounted from his horse, and, leaving his body-guard behind, went on alone'
Hermit:
- wise- 'he decided to consult a hermit, widely renowned for his wisdom';
- practical- 'Remember then: there is only one time that is important--Now! It is the most important time because it is the only time when we have any power. The most necessary man is he with whom you are, for no man knows whether he will ever have dealings with any one else: and the most important affair is, to do him good, because for that purpose alone was man sent into this life!"
Bearded man:
- impulsive - 'I am that enemy of yours who swore to revenge himself on you, because you executed his brother and seized his property.'
- grateful- 'Now, if I live, and if you wish it, I will serve you as your most faithful slave, and will bid my sons do the same.'
