Answer:
Criticizes the subject for having abundant knowledge of the world but low self-awareness- He was a mighty poet—and A subtle-souled Psychologist; All things he seemed to understand Of old or new—of sea or land— But his own mind—which was a mist. (excerpt from Peter Bell the Third by Percy Shelley)
Criticizes the subject for confusing his audience - But like a hawk encumber'd with his hood, Explaining Metaphysics to the nation-- I wish he would explain his Explanation. (excerpt from Don Juan by Lord Byron)
Criticizes the subject for his half baked knowledge - …he really promised something great, If not intelligible, without Greek Contrived to talk about the Gods of late, Much as they might have been supposed to speak. (excerpt from Don Juan by Lord Byron)
Explanation:
By the process of elimination, the correct quotes for each excerpt are given as follows-
Percy Shelley's "Peter Bell the Third" is a satirical take of William Wordsworth's poem "Peter Bell". In it, Shelley presents how a man endowed with great ideas are also susceptible to the dullness of life and knowledge. And by stating how <em>"a mighty poet . . . seemed to understand [everything] but his own mind—which was a mist"</em>, he seems to criticize how the subject has low self-awareness despite having abundant knowledge of the world.
Lord Byron's "Don Juan" is a satirical poem about how a man is seduced by a woman and not the other way round. The theme of love and how it affects the young man centers the whole epic poem.
The quote <em>"I wish he would explain his Explanation"</em> is a critique of how the subject confuses his audience more than providing the right answers. Additionally, <em>"he really promised something great, . . . without Greek contrived to talk about the Gods of late, . . . Much as they might have been supposed to speak"</em> is also a critique of how the subject has just some level of knowledge, though not fully aware of the whole issue, more like having "half-baked" knowledge.

Which word signals that a comparison is being made?
extreme
object
