Final answer:

In Shakespeare's play Hamlet, Polonius hires Reynaldo to spy on his son Laertes in Paris and report on his behavior.

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears that there is confusion regarding the task given to Reynaldo by Polonius. Polonius is a character from William Shakespeare's play Hamlet, and he does indeed hire a character named Reynaldo. However, the excerpts provided do not give information about Reynaldo's task. In Hamlet, Polonius hires Reynaldo to spy on his son Laertes, who is in Paris, by inquiring indirectly about his behavior. The goal is for Reynaldo to find out if Laertes is engaging in any inappropriate activities and to bring that information back to Polonius. This is a part of the play's larger theme of surveillance and deception.
