Answer:

Shakespeare represents B) attire in this passage:

Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express’d in fancy; rich, not gaudy; For the apparel oft proclaims the man, And they in France of the best rank and station Are most select and generous, chief in that.

Explanation:

The elements behind the answer are: that the character we are describing is a habit as expensive as the coin can pay. But that is not done to show wealth or power. But the character of the man it wants to be represented. But the defining factor is that Shakespeare claims that the best and most ranked selections are found in France because they are the dominant party in that habit. All characteristics of clothing or attire, a form of calling etiquette or elegant clothing style.

  • The verb within the sentence is <em>was</em>.
  • There is one complement in the sentence which is subject compliment: <em>short. </em>Remember that subject complements give us more information about the subject and they usually occur after linking verbs (seem, be, become) and, in this sentence, the subject complement is preceded by the verb <em>was.</em>
