Answer:

A. The speaker mentions Hamlet to show how he comes to terms with indecision and makes a stand.

Explanation:

In this stanza, the speaker compares himself to the characters in <em>Hamlet</em>. He tells us that he is not Prince Hamlet, who eventually overcomes his indecision and makes a stand. Instead, he is an "attendant." He is only useful to move the story along ("<em>To swell a progress, start a scene or two,"</em>) and is too careful and mild to be exciting in the way Hamlet is (<em>"Politic, cautious, and meticulous; Full of high sentence, but a bit obtuse;</em>"), so much so that he can end up looking like "the Fool." The poem makes an allusion to Hamlet, as an allusion is an indirect reference to a work, place, event, person or idea from an unrelated context.

Umnica [9.8K]
The similarity about a stage and a film interpretation of the above scene is VIEWERS WOULD HAVE TO INFER THE EMOTIONS AND MOTIVATIONS OF BEN AND REGINA.

They do not need to envision the physical description of Ben and Regina nor do they have to imagine the props being used as well as the movements being done because they can actually see the actors and the setting. They need to look beyond the physical appearances of the characters and determine the emotions of the characters by listening to the inflections of their voices as they speak as well as try to look to telling actions that is in direct contrast to the staged scenario.
