<u>Explanation:</u>
The apparition of the King of Denmark advises his child Hamlet to retaliate for his homicide by murdering the new lord, Hamlet's uncle. Hamlet fakes frenzy, examines life and demise, and looks for vengeance. His uncle, dreading for his life, likewise devises plots to murder Hamlet.
Hamlet is a retribution disaster written in the line of Roman Senecan catastrophe. At the point when the play closes all the significant characters are dead making the catastrophe a flat out one. Hamlet's dad has been killed by his uncle and his mom weds the criminal after her significant other's demise.

Answer:
The line is a metaphor for:
B. A life without dreams.
Explanation:
Let's take a look at the poem:
<em>Hold fast to dreams
</em>
<em>For if dreams die
</em>
<em>Life is a broken-winged bird
</em>
<em>That cannot fly.
</em>
<em> </em>
<em>Hold fast to dreams
</em>
<em>For when dreams go
</em>
<em>Life is a barren field
</em>
<em>Frozen with snow.</em>

<u>As we can see above, in the first stanza the author compares life to a broken-winged bird after mentioning the death of dreams. What the author means is that a life without dreams is as purposeless as a bird that cannot fly. Dreams are what makes life worth living, what gives us a sense of purpose. Without them, there is no reason to go on.</u>
In Shakespeare’s time people believed in witches. They were people who had made a pact with the Devil in exchange for supernatural powers. If your cow was ill, it was easy to decide it had been cursed. If there was plague in your village, it was because of a witch. If the beans didn’t grow, it was because of a witch. Witches might have a familiar – a pet, or a toad, or a bird – which was supposed to be a demon advisor. People accused of being witches tended to be old, poor, single women. It is at this time that the idea of witches riding around on broomsticks (a common household implement in Elizabethan England) becomes popular.
There are lots of ways to test for a witch. A common way was to use a ducking stool, or just to tie them up, and duck the accused under water in a pond or river. If she floated, she was a witch. If she didn’t, she was innocent. She probably drowned. Anyone who floated was then burnt at the stake. It was legal to kill witches because of the Witchcraft Act passed in 1563, which set out steps to take against witches who used spirits to kill people.
King James I became king in 1603. He was particularly superstitious about witches and even wrote a book on the subject. Shakespeare wrote Macbeth especially to appeal to James – it has witches and is set in Scotland, where he was already king. The three witches in Macbeth manipulate the characters into disaster, and cast spells to destroy lives. Other magic beings, the fairies, appear in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Elizabethans thought fairies played tricks on innocent people – just as they do in the play.
