Question

Marcus has just read a soliloquy in which the play’s antagonist challenges the gods with these words: Oh, gods, you cannot stop me now! No force of nature can halt my plan. Tonight, the king shall propose to Alexandra, though he knows not that her loyalty is already sworn to me. Ha! And then, when that weak and softhearted king has pledged his love to a serpent in disguise, I shall finally see my moment of sweet revenge!” What can Marcus learn from the antagonist’s soliloquy?
