Question

I would not be thy executioner: I fly thee, for I would not injure thee. Thou tell’st me there is murder in mine eye: ‘Tis pretty, sure, and very probable, That eyes, that are the frail’st and softest things, Who shut their coward gates on atomies, Should be call’d tyrants, butchers, murderers! Now I do frown on thee with all my heart; And if mine eyes can wound, now let them kill thee: Now counterfeit to swoon; why now fall down;

Answer 1

The excerpt above was taken from the play "As you like it" written by Shakespeare. The excerpt is found in Act 3 and Scene 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The play "As you like it" tells the story of Frederick who usurped his brother's power, stole his place at court and raised his daughter as his own. This girl is called Rosalinda who ended up falling in love with her father's best friend. To prevent the girl from knowing the real story, Frederick throws her out of the house. With that, she disguises herself as a man and goes to live in the forest, where she ends up meeting her father.

The above excerpt depicts the dialogue of other characters, Phoebe and Silvius. Where Phoebe displays her opinion of being a murderer.

Answer 2

This is taken from Act 3 Scene 5 of the Shakespeare AS YOU LIKE IT (no fear). It is a dialogue between Phoebe and Silvius.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this Phoebe is telling Silvius that she does not want to be the one official killer nor she wants to hurt him. So she is avoiding him,as he has already informed her of her killings with her eyes which she finds very nostalgic.She further says that her eyes are so weak that they shut even with the minutest particle of dust. Such weak, soft , tender eyes shouldn't be called tyrants, butchers or murderers! He should faint and drop down on the floor as she is staring in anger with all her strength. And if her eyes can hurt let her see the wounds and cuts and allow them to kill , why fall out or run away.
