Based on the descriptions provided, Merchant Lyte from Johnny Tremain is most likely portrayed as C) devious and manipulative.
To find the lines from the novel that best support this answer, let's examine the given options:
A) "He's sly. When the merchants agreed not to import any English goods until the stamp act was repealed, he was one of the first to sing-then imported secretly. Sold through another name."
This line suggests that Merchant Lyte acted deviously by pretending to support the merchants' agreement but then secretly importing English goods and selling them under a different name. This supports the portrayal of him being devious.
B) "He says if Mrs. Lapham lets Cilla testify for you, he'll take a ship back to Baltimore. Says he's sensitive and a great artist and he can't be upset by thieves and brawlers."
This line does not directly support the portrayal of Merchant Lyte as devious and manipulative. Instead, it highlights his desire to avoid trouble and justify his own actions.
C) "My mother, sir. The boy's voice shook slightly. She told me.... she always said... I can go on from there, boy. Your mother on her deathbed told you you were related to the rich Boston merchant"?
This line does not provide any specific information about Merchant Lyte's character, so it does not support the answer choice.
D) "Mr. Lyte as informally as though he and Mr. Dana were alone together, sitting at a tavern, cracking walnuts, drinking Madeira."
This line does not offer any insight into Merchant Lyte's character traits, so it does not support the answer choice.
Based on the available information, it is clear that option A provides the best support for the answer. Therefore, the correct answer for the lines from the novel that support the portrayal of Merchant Lyte as devious and manipulative is A.
