My children, latest generation born from Cadmus, why are you sitting here with wreathed sticks in supplication to me, while the city fills with incense, chants and cries of pain? … so I have come in person—I, Oedipus, whose fame all men acknowledge. … I shall assist you willingly in every way. I would be a hard-hearted man indeed, if I did not pity suppliants like these. Which line supports the inference that Oedipus is a proud man? I would be a hard-hearted man indeed I shall assist you willingly in every way ...why are you sitting here with wreathed sticks in supplication to me I, Oedipus, whose fame all men acknowledge

Answer:

For me, the line that supports the inference that Oedipus is a proud man is the last one: "I, Oedipus, whose fame all men acknowledge."

Explanation:

In this line, Oedipus mentions his fame among the people. He says it with proud, he remembers his audience that he is a well-known person and say it out loud proudly. If he wasn't proud of what is said about him, he wouldn't mention the fame he has. In stead, he exposes the fame he has in order to let everyone know what is said of him because he feels proud of it.
