Which phrase in this excerpt from the play everyman refers to god's judgment of people's souls after their death? messenger: . . ye think sin in the beginning full sweet, which in the end causeth thy soul to weep, when the body lieth in clay. here shall you see how fellowship and jollity, both strength, pleasure, and beauty, will fade from thee as flower in may. for ye shall hear, how our heavenly king calleth everyman to a general reckoning: give audience, and hear what he doth say. god: i perceive here in my majesty, how that all the creatures be to me unkind, living without dread in worldly prosperity: of ghostly sight the people be so blind, drowned in sin, they know me not for their god; in worldly riches is all their mind, they fear not my righteousness, the sharp rod; my law that i shewed, when i for them died[…]

The General reckoning represents the time of judgment – the time when your actions are judged as good or bad and you are rewarded or punished. In this excerpt from “The Summoning of Everyman” written by anonymous author, the phrase in this excerpt that refers to God's judgment of people's souls after their death is general reckoning (“For ye shall hear, how our heavenly king Calleth Everyman to a general reckoning”).

the significance of the title, "the passing", is related to the fact that the main characters, who are three african-american descendant women, are passing as white. this means that, because of their light-coloured skins they look like white women. one of the three friends, clare, is married to a white man and she lives in a white community and she has never told her husband that she is black. the title can easily be connected to the idea of pretending to be someone you are not and of losing your real identity in order to be accepted by society.
