Answer:

The snake means that his poison can kill the body and allow the soul to return to where it came from.

Explanation:

The children's classic "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupery revolves around the story of a stranded pilot's encounter with a "Little Prince" from the planet<em> "Asteroid B-612".</em>

The Little Prince's encounter with the<em> "coil of gold" </em>on the barren desert is found in chapter 17. Here, the Little Prince did not know about snakes nor about anything but was courteously conversing with the reptile. When he commented on how powerless the snake is, <em>"u haven't even any feet. You cannot even travel. . ."</em> the snake remarked that <em>"Whomever I touch, I send back to the earth from whence he came."</em>

This reference is to the Biblical notion of man coming from dust and returning to dust when one dies. So, when he said <em>"whence they came"</em> he's talking about the poison that can kill and send men back to the earth.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Summarize in two sentences what is read in Act V of Macbeth.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Summary: Act 5, scene 1

At night, in the king’s palace at Dunsinane, a doctor and a gentlewoman discuss Lady Macbeth’s strange habit of sleepwalking. Suddenly, Lady Macbeth enters in a trance with a candle in her hand. Bemoaning the murders of Lady Macduff and Banquo, she seems to see blood on her hands and claims that nothing will ever wash it off. She leaves, and the doctor and gentlewoman marvel at her descent into madness.

Summary: Act 5, scene 2

Outside the castle, a group of Scottish lords discusses the military situation: the English army approaches, led by Malcolm, and the Scottish army will meet them near Birnam Wood, apparently to join forces with them. The “tyrant,” as Lennox and the other lords call Macbeth, has fortified Dunsinane Castle and is making his military preparations in a mad rage.
