That face of his I do remember well; Yet, when I saw it last, it was besmear'd As black as Vulcan in the smoke of war: A bawblin

g vessel was he captain of, For shallow draught and bulk unprizable; With which such scathful grapple did he make With the most noble bottom of our fleet, That very envy and the tongue of loss Cried fame and honour on him. What's the matter?

Answer:

Hi! I wish we had more information about where is this excerpt from, who is the author, etc. in order to make a better interpretation of it. Anyways, I'll try to help you by giving you the best answer possible with the facts we have here.

Explanation:

The task is asking for an explanation on the matter, so I would say, after carefully reading these lines, that the matter here is that this man, the captain of "<em>a bawbling vessel</em>" <u>was different from who he used to be, according to the speaker.</u> <em>He was "darker", something had changed him</em>, some situation that we don't know of, that is not described in the excerpt changed him for good, a "<em>loss</em>" that "<em>cried fame and honour on him</em>".

It is very difficult to understand what happened exactly, but we can see that this man is damaged and has become a dark soul.

Hope this helps!

What is Laertes first question to Claudius about his fathers death?
insens350 [35]

Let this be so.

His means of death, his obscure burial—

No trophy, sword, nor hatchment o'er his bones,

No noble rite nor formal ostentation,

Cry to be heard, as 'twere from heaven to earth,

That I must call't in question.

in at least 150 words, discuss the story of orestes and agamemnon. explain the relevance of their story to that of telemachus an
kobusy [5.1K]
Agamemnon was the leader of the Greek troops in the Trojan wars and Orestes was his son. When Agamemno returned from the war, he was murdered by his wife's lover in conjunction with his wife. Orestes could not stop them but he seeked vengeance for his father. After a long time, he found them and avenged his father while killing them. He killed his mother, but Greek mythology claims that his act was just and he was spared the remorse and the guilt. There are a lot of similarities with the Ulysses/Telemachus father son pair. Ulysses was also one of the leaders of the excursion to Troy. He still has not returned home, but in a sense the suitors of Penelope are marring his estate and his reputation. While Penelope is faithful to Ulysses, the suitors by taking hold of the palace and committing their shameful acts are dishonoring Ulysses. In the same context, Telemachus is asked just like Orestes to restitute his father's honor, regardless of whether he is alive or dead. Athena is helping him and encouraging him with this example and he himself feels the need to save his father's honor.
