Answer:
a. They think they'll come marching back, somehow, just as gay as they went
c. some of those foreigners, that weren't there because they had any say about it, but because they had to be there, poor wretches
d. You thought it would be all right for my George, your George, to kill the sons of those miserable mothers and the husbands of those girls that you would never see the faces of."
Explanation:
The short story "Editha" by William Dean Howell revolves around the character Editha who thinks that war is glorious and 'forces' her fiancé to enlist. But in the end, the man died, thus showing how useless war is.
After Editha persuades George to enlist for the war, he did not return alive, which led to the outburst of George's mother. She lamented that just because she (Editha) <em>"thought it would be all right for my George, your George, to kill the sons of those miserable mothers and the husbands of those girls that you would never see the faces of"</em> doesn't justify the war. She also commented on how people <em>"think they'll come marching back, somehow, just as gay as they went"</em>. She also referred to the foreigners who weren't there as <em>"poor wretches".</em>
Thus, <u>options a, c, and d shows the meaninglessness of war</u>.
The answer would most likely be a metaphor, sorry if I’m wrong!

Lady Macbeth influenced Macbeth's decision to murder Duncan by being manipulative and questioning Macbeth's status as a man. She claimed that she would have "plucked the boneless gums out of her nipple" if she had promised it to Macbeth. This prompts Macbeth to follow through with his promise when he said he would murder Duncan earlier.
She asks him if he would rather be a coward than seize an opportunity to achieve the "ornament" of life - the crown. Additionally, Lady Macbeth says that she cannot love a man who is not willing to have the integrity to do such a thing, this really persuades him as they do share a passionate bond throughout the play.
