Mr. Gascoigne  can be characterized with the word <em>pompousness </em>because his politcial talks related to patriotism and national glory. Indeed, pompousness is synonymous with excessive pride and exaggeration. After his talk, upcoming sentence characterizes Colonel Killgrew's traits. His behavior is relevant with the word <em>lust </em>because he was looking to a beautiful woman named Widow Wycherly. The latter is characterized in the beginning of the paragraph.
