Explanation:

In the pygmalion play, Shaw tries to not only use language and words to create art but also to make the readers to examine the power of language. Shaw insisted that Eliza will not marry Higgins because Higgins is domineering and insensitive.. Higgins objectifies Eliza as well as bullies her. She is the main component of his experiment. the major themes of the play is that of language, social status and transformation.

Eliza's well considered decision not to marry Higgins is as a result of the way he treats her and her instincts tells her not to marry Higgins. She is therefore guided by her instinct. however Higgins indifference to young  women on his believe that they had an irresistible rival in his mother gave a clue as to how an inveterate old bachelor he is. For Higgins to idealize his mother instead of Eliza seem to them as absurd and unnatural. Eliza also mentions the fact that Mr.Fredrick Eynsford Hill is pouring out his love for her daily and Freddy is twenty years younger than Higgins, He is also a gentleman and well dressed and loves her genuinely and as well does not dominate her or master over her like Higgins.

panting and hungry, he looked at me, a defenseless human and he snarled.

well i said my prayers, however, he simply turned and limped off.
