Answer :

In the comment, "So gold can easily Triumph, defeat the strongest of men, No matter how deep it is hidden," the implication is that the lust for gold motivates men to accomplish what they otherwise would never attempt.

The correct answer is: d. motivates men to accomplish what they otherwise would never attempt.
