Answer:
This is my opinion!
Woods is childhood - ocean is adulthood
As a child, everything is usually the same. Go to school, come home, do homework, play outside, eat dinner, sleep. Repeat, repeat, repeat. Nothing is changing because your parents always have your back, and you have no real responsibilities. As an adult, things are always changing. Something could go wrong at any moment. Forget to pay pills, electricity shuts off, you lose your job, etc.
I think that the correct answer is: It creates a matter-of-fact tone as Machiavelli demonstrates the positive effects of a ruler's cruelty.
In The Prince, Machiavelli gives empirical examples of his ideas to demonstrate the logic behind them. In this case he does the same, although he warns the prince that it is better to be known for mercy than for cruelty, he the demonstrates that some cruelty is necessary for a monarch. This to keep under control those who would take the power if they saw any waeknesses. An excess of mercy will lead to a state in which no one will respect the ruler and everyone will try to take or do what they want. In such a state, murder, robbery and crime in general would be common. With some acts of violence, the prince will give an example of his power and will maintain everything under control, leading, eventually to less deaths than being completely merciful.
