PART B: Which of the following quotes best supports the answer to Part A? "To die, to sleep - / No more - and by a sleep to say we end / The heartache,
and the thousand natural shocks / That flesh is heir to. Tis a consummation /
Devoutly to be wished." (Lines 5-9)
"For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, / Th' oppressor's wrong, the
proud man's contumely / The pangs of despised love, the law's delay, / The
insolence of office, and the spurns / That patient merit of th' unworthy takes, /
When he himself might his quietus make" (Lines 15-20)
"The undiscovered country, from whose bourn / No traveller returns, puzzles the
will, / And makes us rather bear those ills we have / Than fly to others that we
know not of?" (Lines 24-27)
"And thus the native hue of resolution / Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of
thought, / And enterprise of great pitch and moment / With this regard their
currents turn awry / And lose the name of action." (Lines 29-33)

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of the prince. there are, for example, the spartans and the romans. the spartans held athens and thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. the romans, in order to hold capua, carthage, and numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. they wished to hold greece as the spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. so to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them. and he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. and whatever you may do or provide against, they never forget that name or their privileges unless they are disunited or dispersed, but at every chance they immediately rally to them, as pisa after the hundred years she had been held in bondage by the florentines. what idea is stressed in the passage? the desire for liberty the establishment of an oligarchy the dismantling of an acquired state the tendency toward rebellion
