When he says "Denmark's a prison", Hamlet is using a metaphor. A metaphor is a word or expression that means something different from their literal meaning. This figurative language is telling us that, like a person who is in prison, Hamlet also feels as if he were trapped and watched the whole time.

Two other sentences that are using figurative language as well, are the following:

"<u>To be or not to be</u>", is a parallel structure, that is, when we are using the same pattern of words, to show that those words or ideas bear the same importance.

"<u>Despised love</u>", is an oxymoron, which is a kind of speech containing words that seem to contradict each other.

Answer:

Explanation:

Honesty encompasses a certain number of values which may include being open on cases, being truthful when giving verdict, being trustworthy when placed in charge or control of a venture, Honesty also covers keeping to one's words, hence an honest person could be said to exhibit probity and many other virtues of goodness.

However, to exhibit these virtues in such a tempting environment where honesty seems to be impracticable quality due to growing societal decay, immorality and regular injustice upholding these virtues requires a strong zeal and desire to stand with the truth nearing in mind that it will ultimately prevail.
