Question

"If we shadows have offended, Think but this, and all is mended, That you have but slumber'd here While these visions did appear. And this weak and idle theme, No more yielding but a dream, Gentles, do not reprehend: if you pardon, we will mend: And, as I am an honest Puck, If we have unearned luck Now to 'scape the serpent's tongue, We will make amends ere long; Else the Puck a liar call; So, good night unto you all. Give me your hands, if we be friends, And Robin shall restore amends."Explain.

Answer 1

The correct answer is: He apologizes firstly and then, he asks for an applause.

Step-by-step explanation:

He offers and apology in case people have felt offended by the play, you can understand this by the first line: "If we shadows have offended...". He also describes and compares the play to "a dream". He finishes up requesting the audience's applause " Give me your hands, if we be friends".
