Answer:

"...on the cusp of something so profound, that it is hard to put it into words" means that something profound was about to happen at that point in time.

When we can even say for example,  when Tom Brokaw was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 2013, he was "on the cusp of something so profound, that it was hard to put it into words."

Explanation:

It could also mean when someone is about to enter a new experience either in professional life or otherwise.  When somebody is overwhelmed by the current situation or position, it may be very difficult for the person to put into words the newly found position.  In summary, "on the cusp of something" shows the intensity and profundity of the new situation.

Reread Claudius's soliloquy in Act III, Scene 3, beginning "O, my offense is rank . . ." and ending with "All may be well." Brie
sweet [91]

In Claudius's soliloquy, we learn that Claudius did actually kill his brother. In his soliloquy, Claudius talks about his crime, and he says that it "bears the mark of Cain" who also killed his brother. Although we had been suspicious of Claudius throughout the story, this is the moment when our doubts are confirmed. We also learn that Claudius is extremely guilty about his actions, but that he believes that time and God's mercy will eventually help him overcome this feeling of guilt.
