What three extravagant and hasty promises does Fellowship make as he urges Everyman to "show him the grief of his mind" (Mark all that apply.)?

Answer:

The promises were:

  • I will not forsake thee in this life.
  • I will not forsake thee to my life's end.
  • For, in faith, if thou go to hell, I will not forsake thee by the way.

Step-by-step explanation:

These three promises were made to deceive Everyman, who was very frightened by everything that was happening. And those promises turned into three lies because when it was really needed, the friendship did not fulfill anything that was promised.

Fellowship makes three promises to Everyman, who is scared and feels desperate. The first promise that Fellowship makes is that he will never forsake or turn his back on Everyman.
The second Fellowship's promise is that he will try to make things right, and correct the mistakes which Everyman made in the past, which caused his sorrow.
Finally, he promises to stick with Everyman even if he goes to hell.
Unfortunately, it later turns out all the promises were hasty and Fellowship doesn't stay true to them.
