The most accurate inference we could make is option D, which alludes to the Count's (the speaker's) somber nature. In the poem, he tells about his former lady, who was seemingly easily amused. This, apparently, bothered him; how she smiled at virtually anything teased him to bits. So he "gave commands". Maybe he told her not to be so perky, maybe he had her killed, who knows? But the ambiguity around his statement and the fact that "<span>all smiles stopped together" make us wonder about how far the Count would go to make his Duchess please him.</span>

As you know, Laertes and Fortinbras are two characters in Shakespeare’s play that serve as foils for Hamlet. How does each figur
Stella [2.4K]

Leartes and Fortinbras share the same fate as Hamlet, the three of them lost their fathers in unfortunate circumstances. They feel the same kind of grieve of losing a loved one. But each reacts, differently. Their behaviour play a close related trait towards advice and duty, action versus inaction and sanity versus madness. Hamlet and Leartes want to get revenge, while the first is looking forward is getting the throne back and considers the consequences of his actions. Leartes, on the other hand, is blinded by his feelings (madness) and takes belligerent actions without thinking on the consequences.

Hamlet and Fortinbras, want to take revenge both. Whereas Hamlet only seeks to get the throne back and keeps on devating on how and when to take action, Fortinbras wants to clean his family's name and fights in an orderly fashion, with the use of an army.
