Answer:
The lines show Lady Macduff's dilemma on being asked to run away and hide. She could do nothing except to accept the fact that this world is unfair and unjust at times.
Explanation:
Spoken by Lady Macduff in Act IV scene ii of the play "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare, these lines show the dilemma of Lady Macduff about what to do. She does not seem to understand the whole situation of the kingdom but she also realized that the world is an unfair place.
The scene shows a messenger warning Lady Macduff to take her children and run away before any harm can come to them. She then tells of her dilemma of where to go and why they would need to hide and be on the run. She hasn't done anything wrong so it is uncalled for to be told to hide and run away. But she then also admits that "<em>in this earthly world; where to do harm Is often laudable, to do good sometime Accounted dangerous folly</em>". But before she could act, the murderers hired by the greedy and murderous king Macbeth had reached her place and eventually killed her whole family.
I think this is the excerpt:
<span>Capulet: so many guests invite as here are writ.--
Sirrah, go hire me twenty cunning cooks.
second Servant: you shall have none ill, sir; for ill try if they can lick their fingers.
Capulet: How canst thou try them so?
Second Servant: Marry sir, 'tis and ill cook that cannot lick his own fingers: therefore he that cannot lick his fingers goes not with me.
