Which of the following statements best illustrate(s) the character traits of Jacques? Select all that apply. He kissed her face

and her hair, and, weeping, he murmured: "Do not be uneasy; I will stay." When he was near her he would become silent, unable to speak or even to think, with a kind of throbbing at his heart, and a buzzing in his ears, and a bewilderment in his mind. He wished to speak, but found nothing to say, and so sat there, expressing all his ardor by pressures of the hand. From time to time he would murmur: "Berthe!" Powerless to lift her head, she held out her white lips in an appeal for a kiss. He approached his lips to respond to this piteous entreaty.

This is taken from the short story written by Guy de Maupassant, called "The Wedding  Gift".

He kissed her face and her hair, and, weeping, he murmured: "Do not be uneasy; I will stay." When he was near her he would become silent, unable to speak or even to think, with a kind of throbbing at his heart, and a buzzing in his ears, and a bewilderment in his mind.

This illustrates how Jacques Bourdillere was head over heals in love with his new love Berthe, whom he got married to, but he still had feelings for his long time lover, who had a baby boy with him and died after giving birth to their son. He was gentle and loving and forgiving on her deathbed and promised to take care of their son, which he brought home to his lovely new wife as a 'wedding gift'. The first part of the statement is when he was on his lover's deathbed, and the second part is when he was with his wife, madly in love and not knowing what to say to her.

Answer: A. Hawthorne is giving a lesson Franklin learned that readers might also profit from

Explanation:

Hawthorne is obviously not giving his own thoughts, since Franklin said this and it is a quote. He also cannot be trying to get young readers to relate because there is nothing in the excerpt about being a boy. Franklin probably had some experience and learned this lesson from it.
