Notes The last act brings about the catastrophe of the play. This does not consist merely in the death of Macbeth upon the field of battle. Shakespeare is always more interested in the tragedy of the soul than in external events, and he here employs all his powers to paint for us the state of loneliness and hopeless misery to which a long succession of crimes has reduced Macbeth. Still clinging desperately to the deceitful promises of the witches the tyrant sees his subjects fly from him; he loses the support and companionship of his wife, and looks forward to a solitary old age, accompanied only by "curses, not loud, but deep." It is not until the very close of the act, when he realizes how he has been trapped by the juggling fiends, that Macbeth recovers his old heroic self; but he dies, sword in hand, as befits the daring soldier that he was before he yielded to temptation.
It is worth noting how in this act Shakespeare contrives to reengage our sympathies for Macbeth. The hero of the play no longer appears as a traitor and a murderer, but as a man oppressed by every kind of trouble, yet fighting desperately against an irresistible fate. His bitter remorse for the past and his reckless defiance of the future alike move us with overwhelming power, and we view his tragic end, not with self-righteous approval, but with deep and human pity.
Explanation She stills sees the blood of the murders on her hands. This is the opposite of when she said 'A little water clears us of this deed' (Page 29 - Line 70). Macbeth also questions whether his hands will ever be clean again immediately after killing Duncan, asking 'will all great Neptune's ocean wash this blood clean from my hand?' (Page 28 - Line 63). Ultimately, however, Shakespeare shows that neither a 'little water' nor an 'ocean' will wash away their guilt.

Answer:
War of the Worlds played with the fear of the known, like the war and invasion, and the unknown, like the things that come to Earth. One of the messages that you can collect from it is "what "our" people will think is they were invaded like our people invaded other communities/civilizations?"
The fear of the people to this story is clearly shown after the panic and hysteria that a radio play caused in 1938 between their listeners.

Finally, through the gray, we saw them. Three officers on horseback Wer outside to cheer, but the men were quiet and thin.

In this famous poem, titled "The Second Coming", Yeats criticizes religious passion, in the last verse he declares to now know "That twenty centuries of stony sleep/Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle", in this passage he makes the same argument as in the question's passage, he criticizes the sleep of ignorance and how it became a nightmare due to passion. Therefore the first option is the right one.
Yeats classifies “passionate intensity” as worse than a “lack of conviction” because A “passionate intensity” for certain ideals can be destructive.
Yeats refers in this poem ,"The Second Coming" , to the consequences of WWI. Therefore, the ideals leading the war are destructive and do a lot of harm with passion. He says that good people - The best - are the ones who do not have any conviction. They are at a loss. They suffer the consequences of the " passionate" war ideals.
Adverb or Adjective. I believe it is an adverb
The subordinate clause in the sentence is an adverb clause, as it modifies the verb of the main clause and is introduced by a subordinating conjunction.
In the sentence, "The sauce burned before Hans remembered to stir it," the type of subordinate clause is an adverb clause. This is because it modifies a verb in the main clause and is introduced by a subordinating conjunction, in this case 'before'. An adverb clause answers questions like when, where, why, how, to what extent, or under what condition about the verb. In the given sentence, the adverb clause 'before Hans remembered to stir it' answers the question 'when' regarding the verb 'burned' in the main clause.
