Highlight all instances of parallel structure. There is no longer any room for hope. If we wish to be free—if we mean to preserv

e inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending—if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained—we must fight!

"If we wish to be free-if we mean to preserve", "if we mean not basely to abandon" AND "which we have been so long contending", "which we have been so long engaged", "which we have pledged".

Parallelism is the repetition of the same grammatical structure. There are two instances of parallel structure in this excerpt. The first is the "If we ___ to ___" structure. The second is the "which we have _______" structure. By filling the passage with this parallel structure is gives the sense of a list of reasons that all, compounding on top of one another, logically lead to the need to fight. The change from the parallel structures in the last line "we must fight!" makes this exclamation stand out and hold power.

As he’s finishing his speech, Hamlet says, "Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, and thus the native hue of resolution i
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

This soliloquy of Hamlet is taken from Act III scene i of the play where he gave his famous "To be or not to be" speech.

Explanation:

Taken from Act III scene i of the tragedy play "Hamlet" by William Shakespeare, the plot revolves round the revenge plan of the young prince Hamlet against his uncle and step father Claudius. This speech refers to the human attitude towards death and the fear of actually dying, even though we are all destined to die one day.

Right along the lines of his famous "To be or not to be" soliloquy, the speech shows him faltering in his attempts to commit sui cide. But even though he is referring to the universal fear of saying among men, he is also indirectly referring to his own fear or reluctance to actually go forward with his proposed plan. he wants to avenge his father's murder, and get treated right as he should be. He wants to teach his uncle/ step-father/ king Claudius and his mother Queen Gertrude a lesson but he also knows it is risky and will possibly be disastrous for him too. He is rethinking his decision of doing what he had planned, admitting that "<em>the native hue of resolution  Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,.......  their currents turn awry,  And lose the name of action". </em>
