This allusion to Neptune reveals the great depth of Macbeth's guilt, suggesting that all the water in the ocean cannot cleanse him of it. Option A is correct.

When Macbeth talks about the blood on his hands in Act II, Scene II. He says, "Will all great Neptune's ocean wash this blood clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather the multitudinous seas incarnadine, making the green one red."

Macbeth is a tragedy by William Shakespeare which describes the damaging physical and psychological effects of political ambition on those who seek power for its own sake.

ESSAY IM BEGGING: a friend of yours that lives far is writing to you that hes thinking of leaving school. Write an answer to him
Furkat [3]

It has been a while since we last met. "But as the saying goes better late than never". Upon receiving you letter, I have now come to realize the importance of school.

There are so many reasons why you shouldn't stop schooling, and some of those reasons are explained below

Civilization,

In my opinion being civilizated means showing evidence of moral and intellectual advancement and manners. Being educated is almost just like being civilizated, because, you will be educated in school and not only at home. You would also get to experience things that those who left school or those who don't school didn't.

Respected and Accepted

If you continue to school to school you Will be socially acceptable and Respected by those who use to doubt you

In conclusion it is better to stay in school and be educated than leave school and feel regret for it.
