Comment on the given statement after reading the given dialogue.
(a) “And if we get him itself, nothing but abuse on our heads for it from the people, and may be from our own relations”.
(b) “It’s a pity some honest man not to be better of that”.
(c) “I wouldn’t be in your shoes if he reward me ten times as much. People generally fall victim to incentives. Some people stick to values”.
(d) “But when I saw a man in trouble, I could never help trying to set him out of it. It’s human to help others”.

(a) We don’t think of our society at large. If we catch the prisoner, Irish people will abuse us. They expect us to cooperate with the patriots as they are our own people. If we do not catch the escaped prisoner, the British Government will abuse us. In any case if we catch the prisoner or do not catch anyhow we are the one who are going to be abused.
(b) It was a good opportunity for the sergeant to show his honesty to the Britishers. He wanted to catch the escaped prisoner and also to get the reward.
(c) Those who stick to values and are not templed at all, are the people of principles. Such people don’t betray anyone. They are very brave and loyal.
(d) The sergeant was alone in the dangerous dark night. The man wanted to help the sergeant to keep a watch. He told the sergeant that he would help him in his task and would not demand any share in the reward that the sergeant gets for catching the escaped prisoner.
