This song is sang by Ophelia in Act IV, scene V of <em>Hamlet</em>, by William Shakespeare.

In this song, Ophelia sings about a woman who was a "maid" (virgin) and was in love with a man. She tells us that the woman accepted to an invitation by the man on Valentine's Day, and when she left, she was not a maid anymore.

The song points to two important aspects of Ophelia's mind. First, it suggests how betrayed she feels about her relationship with Hamlet. We see that she is reflecting on how men are, and she finds them disgraceful and cunning. The second element is the fact that Ophelia is hallucinating and speaking about nonsensical things. This indicates that she has lost her mind, most likely due to the death of her father or the state of her relationship with Hamlet. By the end of the act, Ophelia will die by drowning.

QveST [7]

Answer:

serves as empathetic feelings of the poet towards Icarus.

Explanation:

The purpose of the questions in lines 1–2 of the poem "Icarus' Flight" by Stephen Dobyn serves as empathetic feelings of the poet towards Icarus.

These questions at the beginning of the poem reminds the readers that the poet, Dobyn, was empathetic and proud of Icarus who got the chance to know his own limits.

Most of the time people mock Icarus for testing his limits by flying so close to the sun and falling down as a result. However, the poet says that Icarus flew just far enough to know his own limits.
