Answer: Hamlet did kill him while he prayed, for he believed this would allow the foul king to go to Heaven, while his father would be doomed to walk the earth as a Spirit for some period of time.

Answer:

Hamlet refuses to kill Claudius during prayer because he believed that  Claudius would get a heavenly afterlife after being pardoned from his sins. In this time, a person was most pure after praying because of the washing away of their sins, but Claudius was admitting his wrongdoings and murderous ways meaning his soul wasn't pure anyways.

Based on your analysis of Emily Dickinson’s “There Is No Frigate like a Book,” the message that literature can transport the hum
Leto [7]

This is a short poem and has nothing to do with B- the life of dickingson, or the C- the poetic structure. The D- word choices she uses are as I mentioned, to compare different transportations: frigates and coursers, to literature.

Then , Gatsby had to be rich and powerful.Finally, in chapter 3 , Nick comments on the parties held at Gasby´s house and gives the reader the idea that thousands of dollars were spent in holding those parties.On page 43 he tells ..."on week -ends his Rolls Royce became an omnibus..".."

With these images, and the use of diction it is very easy for the reader to figure out that Gatsby is immensely rich.
