What does Telemachus advise Odysseus to do? interrogate all the field hands and servants interrogate the field hands but spare the women for now interrogate the women but spare the field hands for now not to bother interrogating the field hands or servants

The correct answer is:

- interrogate the women but spare the field hands for now. As Telemacchus states:

"Trust me, my father! thou shalt soon be taught

That I am not of drowsy mind obtuse.

But this I think not likely to avail

Or thee or me; ponder it yet again;

For tedious were the task, farm after farm

To visit of those servants, proving each,

And the proud suitors merciless devour

Meantime thy substance, nor abstain from aught.

Learn, if thou wilt, (and I that course myself

Advise) who slights thee of the female train,

And who is guiltless; but I would not try

From house to house the men, far better proved

Hereafter, if in truth by signs from heav'n

Inform'd, thou hast been taught the will of Jove.
