Polonius is so certain that he is correct about the source of Hamlets insanity that he points to his head and shoulders and says

, Take this from this, if this is otherwise, meaning he should be killed if hes wrong. Given that we know the truth about Hamlet and given that this is a famous tragedy, what do you suppose is going to happen to Polonius by the end of this play?

At this point, we know that even though Polonius is completely sure of knowing the cause of Hamlet's insanity, he is actually wrong. However, he has asked to be killed if he is. Although he only meant this as an expression, it is in fact an act intended to foreshadow what is going to happen later in the story. Therefore, it is very likely that Polonius will in fact be killed. Moreover, we know that the play is a tragedy, and tragedies usually result in the death of the most important characters.

What led lizabeths revelation about what she had done
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Compassion is what led Lizabeth's revelation about what she had done.

Explanation:

<u><em>"This was  the beginning of compassion, and one cannot have  both compassion and innocence."</em></u>

Lizabeth is the narrator and main character in the short story "Marigolds", by Eugenia Collier. It is the adult Lizabeth narrating the revelation she had at the age of 14, after destroying the garden of marigolds her neighbor, Miss Lottie, grew with so much care.

Before this event, Lizabeth and the other children would tease Miss Lottie, calling her a witch, and throwing stones at her property. They live in an extremely poor neighborhood, and the story is set during the Great Depression. Everything is dilapidated, the only beauty being the Miss Lottie's garden. When Lizabeth hear her father's words of desperation for not being able to provide for his family, she gets angry. Her rage is what drives her to destroy the beautiful garden, as if Lizabeth did not want anyone to have beauty and happiness if she and her family could not have it.

<u>However, for the first time in her life, Lizabeth understands the cruelty of what she has done. It was "the beginning of compassion" and the end of her childish innocence. Lizabeth finally understands why Miss Lottie's has the marigolds. It is precisely because life is miserable and difficult, because the world is ruthless. It was the only source of solace and beauty the woman had, and it was now gone. Compassion, shame, awkwardness arise in Lizabeth. Her understanding of the world is now different, new.</u>
