In Robinson Crusoe, what is your conclusion of Robinson Crusoe's comparison between the evil and good? Evil I am cast upon a horrible desolate...

I would
conclude that good has prevailed over evil in this case. It is completely typical of Crusoe to
weigh life in the balance this way, as if he is placing good and evil on a set of scales and
seeing which is heavier, or as if he is keeping a balance sheet and trying to decide if life
yields more evil or more good.

Thinking it through rationally, Crusoe
recognizes that it is bad ("evil") that he is alone on a desert island with no hope
that he will be rescued by another vessel. However, he realizes it is good he is alive and not
dead...
