Answer:

Hermia does not want to sleep with Lysander until they are married. This scene occurs in Act II Scene II. Hermia has run away to be with Lysander instead of Demetrius and expects to be married to him soon, but she believes that proper maids and bachelors do not sleep together before marriage. Lysander tells her that he only wanted to sleep close to her innocently, but she resists. The following quotation is her response to his suggestion that they sleep side-by-side:

But, gentle friend, for love and courtesy

Lie further off; in human modesty,

Such separation as may well be said

Becomes a virtuous bachelor and a maid,

So far be distant; and, good night, sweet friend:

Thy love ne'er alter till thy sweet life end!

In this same night, Puck puts the love potion on Lysander's eyes because he was instructed by Oberon to give it to an Athenian man without specifying which one. Lysander awakes and falls in love with Helena, the first woman he sees. The crazy web of misplaced love begins to unravel from here.

lord [1]

Answer: Figurative language is mostly used to leave a long lasting impression of something. Writers create images using figurative language so as to have us analyze and observe them in more detail. All of this is especially true of poets and poems who use metaphors, personification, and other narrative devices, so as to convey meaning almost all the time.

He came to my house _ my absence

Rasek [7]

Answer:

He came to my house in my absence.

Explanation:

The word that is missing in the given sentence is the preposition in. Prepositions are words used to link nouns, pronouns, or phrases to other words within a sentence and express the relationship between them.

The phrase in the absence of (someone or something) / in (someone's or something's) absence means while someone/something is away. The word in will always be used in this case.
