Answer 1

Hint:
- A priest is a religious leader who is allowed to carry out a religion's sacred rites, especially as a mediator between humans and one or more deities.
- They also have the right or power to administer sacred rituals, such as offerings to and propitiation of a god or gods.
- Their office or position is known as the priesthood, a term that may often refer to a group of individuals.

Complete answer:
An individual who has been qualified to perform religious duties in the Church is referred to as a priest. Father D'souza, for example, was ordained a priest in 1949. The term "shepherd" refers to a person whose job it is to look after sheep. A individual who has earned an official honour from the Christian Church for living a decent and holy life is referred to as a "Saint." A male monarch of a nation is referred to as a 'King.' 'Courtier' refers to a family member's friend.

A) A shepherd, also known as a sheepherder, is someone who looks after, herds, feeds, or defends flocks of sheep. Shepherd comes from the Old English word shepherd, which means "shepherd." Shepherding is an integral aspect of pastoralist animal husbandry and is one of the world's oldest professions. It can be seen in rural cultures all around the world.

B) A king is a male ruler or monarch who rules over a country and its citizens for the rest of his life, normally by inherited right.

C) A courtier is a person who is frequently present at a monarch's or other royal personage's court. Historically, the court served as both the seat of government and the residence of the king, and social and political life is often intertwined.

D) Saint is an individual who has won an official honour from the Christian Church, especially the Roman Catholic Church, for living a good and holy life.

So, we see here that priest and saint are most related. We can surely say that options A,C,D are incorrect. Since, the priest and saint both are holy persons. They worship God and do the good.A person who is a priest or saint performs all the religious responsibilities and are generous persons by heart. Hence the correct answer saint.

Thus the correct answer is option ‘B’.
