Question

Which line from "Helen Grey" implies the author thinks Helen's behavior is going to hurt Helen herself? Because one loves you, Helen Grey / Is that a reason you should pout Don't cut your fingers with the edge / Of your keen wit; Stoop from your cold height, Helen Grey / Come down, and take a lowlier place Come down you must perforce some day / For years cannot be kept at bay

Answer 1

I'd say the correct answer is: Don't cut your fingers with the edge / Of your keen wit. Because her mind and opinions are going to hurt her.
