The lines are spoken by <u>Friar Lawrence</u> to <u>Capulet</u>, and it refers to the heaven being bothered to <u>Capulet</u> by some past sin he committed. At the same time, <u>Friar Lawrence</u> mentions that <u>Capulet </u>should stop trying to go against heaven and stop challenging it and questioning the reasons why the wedding became a funeral.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Lady Macbeth and Macbeth go through an ambitious period. When Macbeth hears the witches promising his kingship, he plans to murder the king. King Duncan is his name. So he can become king. He fears of no doubt at this moment. (Act 1 Scene 3 pg 7) here he thinks of accepting being king. (Act 1 Scene 4 pg 2) Macbeth thinks of being king and murdering Duncan. (Act 1 Scene 5 pg 3) Macbeth and Lady Macbeth plot on killing Duncan. (Act 1 Scene 7 pg 2) Macbeth reconsiders in killing Duncan. Macbeth begins to have doubts. (Act 1 Scene 7 pg 3) Lady Macbeth insists in killing Duncan.(Act 1 Scene 7 pg 4) Macbeth is now decided to kill the king, but he feels regret. After the murder of King Duncan he begins to have doubts because he knows that Banquo's descendants will take away the thrown and kingship from him. Therefore, this makes him go mad and insane, making him commit one murder after another so there will be no one in his way to stop him from being king. Macbeth's doubts cause him to go back to the witches to assure himself that no one will take the crown away from him. Doubts also make him act impulsively about certain matters. Lady Macbeth on the other hand over time she begins to feel guilt when she starts sleepwalking. (Act 5 Scene 1 pg 1-4) She say's in her sleep the murders she committed. She is repented. However, there is nothing she can do. Due to her insecurity, doubt, lack of sleep, etc she decides to commit suicide because the guilt was just to painful to handle. Both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth we see their character disintegration throught the whole play because of a wicked action they did. It's very helpful. Hope this helped :)

skelet666 [1.2K]

This question is missing the poem. I've found it online. It is as follows:

Fragrant

Lovely

Opened wide

Wind blows

Eager bee

              - Rachelle Kreisman

What does the acrostic poem by Rachelle Kreisman describe? a flower in the springtime the sound of ducks quacking a young horse, galloping in a field flocks of little duckling

Answer:

The poem describes a flower in the springtime.

Explanation:

An acrostic poem uses the letters of its topic word(s) as the first letter of each line. Notice the first letters in Kreisman's poem spell flower:

Fragrant

Lovely

Opened wide

Wind blows

Eager bee

Besides that, each line of the acrostic poem offers a description related to the topic. In this case, we get to know the flower is fragrant and lovely, that it is in bloom, swaying with the wind while attracting bees. In summary, it is describing a flower in the springtime.

In at least 150 words, discuss Miller’s literary purpose for writing The Crucible. Use details from the play to support your ans
exis [7]

he most obvious reason Arthur Miller wrote The Crucible (or anything else, really) is because he had a story to tell. Without that, he would not have been inspired to write. It is true, however, that what inspired him to write this particular story is quite personal.

As a Jewish man, Miller was a political advocate against the inequalities of race in America, and he was vocal in his support of labor and the unions. Because he was such an outspoken critic in these two areas, he was a prime target for Senator Joseph McCarthy and others who were on a mission to rid the country of Communism.

Miller was called before the House Committee on Un-American Activities because of his connections to these issues but refused to condemn any of his friends. This experience, a rather blind and sweeping condemnation of anything even remotely connected to Communism without sufficient (or any) evidence, is what prompted him to write about the Salem Witch trials. 

In a later interview, Miller said the following:

It would probably never have occurred to me to write a play about the Salem witch trials of 1692 had I not seen some astonishing correspondences with that calamity in the America of the late 40s and early 50s. My basic need was to respond to a phenomenon which, with only small exaggeration, one could say paralysed a whole generation and in a short time dried up the habits of trust and toleration in public discourse.

However, the more he began to study the tragic events in Salem, the more he understood that McCarthy's hunt for Communists was nothing compared to the fanaticism which reigned in Salem in the 1690s.

What is one example of nonverbal communication in Kennedy's address at Rice University?
Kaylis [27]

As you may know, nonverbal communication is communication that happens without words.  Nonverbal communication can be anything from eye contact (or lack of eye contact) to facial expressions and gestures.  When one views the speech that President Kennedy gave at Rice University, he can be seen to frequently use his right hand to point down toward the podium or to pound his fist into the podium.  This nonverbal communication—the gestures President Kennedy makes with his right hand— communicates a determination and confidence that reinforces what he was communicating in his speech that the United States was determined to go to the moon and confident it would do so.
