I think that in these lines she admits her helplessness:

Alack, alack! Ye mock me. Is it meet Thus to insult me living, to my face?
---
In there she compares her with slave of destiny :

O monstrous doom,Within a rock-built prison sepulchered,To fade and wither in a living tomb
-------

And there she represents how she belongs to her family  and can't confront the fate her family has builded for her: In thy boldness over-rashMadly thou thy foot didst dash'  Gainst high Justice' altar stair.<span>Thou a father's guild dost bear.</span>
