These words are spoken by Mephistopheles, a prince of the underworld who becomes Faustus' servant for twenty-four years after he sells his soul to Lucifer in exchange for unlimited power.

This passage appears in Act 5, Scene 1, where an Old Man appears in front of Faustus an calls him to renounce sourcery and repent, for is not to late to be saved. But Faustus sends him away, and when Mephistopheles appears, he asks the demon to torture the Old Man for offending him.

To this, Mephistopheles responds with these words, meaning that the torture will only be physical, since he cannot touch the man's soul.

Describe social expectations during the Victorian period and how they are reflected in the literature you have read throughout t
Gre4nikov [31]

The Victorian Era was known as the period where Queen Victoria ruled England. It lasted 68 years, as Queen Victoria assumed the role in 1837 until 1901. It is the longest reign that a British monarch has had.

This period was known for having a hierarchy based social order. As Queen Victoria wanted to regain some of the lost respect the public had towards the Kingdom, society started to benefit those with "noble titles", which were granted by the Queen to a selected number of individuals. This produced a pronounced form of classism an among British society, as middle-class citizens often lost their jobs to people with a certain relation to those who had honorific titles. It was an era of high expectations, as people often were prejudices towards others due to their background.

mojhsa [17]

He wants to obey the Greek custom of providing food and shelter to guests.

According to the Cyclops' words, he wants to obey the Greek custom of providing food and shelter to guests. He tells Odysseus to come back and says, "I'll treat you well, praying the god of earthquake to befriend you". He realizes that he has made a mistake by treating Odysseus without any hospitality. He knew that a man named Odysseus would take out his eye one day, but he expected the person named Odysseus to be a giant. It seems as though he feels guilty for not obeying the Greek customs, and his blind eye is the consequence. It seems as though he hopes a second chance at providing food and shelter to guests might endear him to his father and get his father to heal him.

Which sentence has the correct comma placement? Mark Twain was fond of condemning lying by saying "If you tell the truth, you do
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Mark Twain was fond of condemning lying by saying, "If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything."

Explanation:

Quotations are usually used with a colon after a sentence. However, they can also be introduced with a comma when there is an introductory phrase before it, such as <em>by saying</em>. On the other hand, when the quotation is introduced in the sentence, the comma is not necessary, like the first sentence.
