    What does this quote suggest? "Done to death by slanderous tongues Was the Hero that here lies: Death, in guerdon of her wrongs, Gives her fame which never dies. So the life that died with shame Lives in death with glorious fame. Hang thou there upon the tomb, Praising her when I am dumb. Now, music, sound, and sing your solemn hymn."

    • Claudio is happy about Hero's death

    • Claudio deeply regrets his actions

    • Claudio is depressed and cannot be healed

    • Claudio wants to commit suicide

    Correct Answer
    A. Claudio deeply regrets his actions
    Explanation
    The quote suggests that Claudio deeply regrets his actions. The lines "Done to death by slanderous tongues" and "Death, in guerdon of her wrongs, Gives her fame which never dies" imply that Hero was falsely accused and slandered, leading to her death. Claudio realizes the injustice of his actions and feels remorseful. The line "Hang thou there upon the tomb, Praising her when I am dumb" shows that he acknowledges his guilt and wants to honor Hero's memory. The mention of music and a solemn hymn further emphasizes the somber and regretful tone.

    Explanation
    Benedick did not support Hero and Claudio's marriage at the beginning of the play. In fact, he was initially against the idea of marriage altogether and held a cynical view towards it.
