Which lines in this excerpt from act ii of william shakespeare’s romeo and juliet reveal that mercutio thinks romeo would be better off if he stopped thinking about love?

mercutio: i will bite thee by the ear for that jest.

romeo: nay, good goose, bite not.

mercutio: thy wit is a very bitter sweeting it is a most
sharp sauce.

romeo: and is it not well served in to a sweet goose?

mercutio: o here's a wit of cheveril, that stretches from an
inch narrow to an ell broad!

romeo: i stretch it out for that word 'broad; ' which added
to the goose, proves thee far and wide a broad goose.

mercutio: why, is not this better now than groaning for love?
now art thou sociable, now art thou romeo; now art
thou what thou art, by art as well as by nature:
for this drivelling love is like a great natural,
that runs lolling up and down to hide his bauble in a hole.

benvolio: stop there, stop there.

mercutio: thou desirest me to stop in my tale against the hair.

benvolio: thou wouldst else have made thy tale large.

mercutio: o, thou art deceived; i would have made it short:
for i was come to the whole depth of my tale; and
meant, indeed, to occupy the argument no longer.

Multiple ! in this excerpt from act i, scene vi, of macbeth, duncan praises the atmosphere in the castle and the hospitality of his hostess. identify two reasons that these comments are ironic. duncan: this castle hath a pleasant seat: the air nimbly and sweetly recommends itself unto our gentle sense. . . (enter lady macbeth.) duncan: see, see, our honour'd hostess! — the love that follows us sometime is our trouble, which still we as love. herein i teach you how you shall bid god ild us for your pains, and us for your trouble. he will meet his death in the castle, which he considers a pleasant place. his praise for inverness and his hostess, lady macbeth, is deceptive. duncan secretly plans to give macbeth's title to donalbain. the hostess he praises is actually plotting his murder.
