Answer:
They were meant to instruct the people.
Explanation:
These plays were about the bible, saints, or sometimes just about a situation where it's shown the correct path to be taken when choices seem ambiguous. Those plays were meant to teach others how to act and how to be moral and good.
Beowulf follows a strict code of morals fighting for fame and glory he is described as brave daring and bold. He inspired his men and lead them without fear. His choices were always made to keep his men as safe as he could wile still completing his task. this is a great model for leadership in our times as many fail to lead with justness as Beowulf did. He made fair decisions and always looked out for his fellow warriors.
His skills however dont translate into today's modern times as beowulfs tales speak of evil monsters, terrifying creatures and dark places all over the world. His job in this epic poem is to rid the world of its most dangerous demons monsters and creatures weather they lurk in the sea, sky, or deep underground and he does this for payment but mostly for glory as in the times this poem is based to kill a beast of such stature was an instant way to be remembered and that is what many including Beowulf searched for to be remembered to have songs sung in his name and for people to remember his skill and power.
(hope that helped)
The prince's first two lines are a use of amplification as he is repeating himself for emphasis. This makes the story more dramatic.
Benvolio uses epithet when he is mentioning that Mercutio is brave. This is because he is listing a quality Mercutio has and is saying it before his name.
Benvolio also seems to be repeating himself when he says noble prince once again when continuing with the details. He didn't have to repeat it over again but it adds emphasis to the story. He also repeats himself once again when describing what occurred but in a less poetic and more serious fashion.
Lady Capulet's grief also adds to the dramatic effect as she lists off the dead man's relations. This appears to be an anaphora when she says "O".
Once again, just like Benvolio has, she repeats what she said earlier except in a more easy to understand and less condensed form. This is only adding more emphasis.
Once again the prince asks what happened to Benvolio. He already asked this at the beginning but he is using more emphasis.
Benvolio speaks to him poetically. However, at the end of this line, it also describes the way he said it and how he postured himself in front of the prince. This is adding more onto the dialogue.
Beyond this point I don't get the rest sorry lol
