Explanations
Act- V, Scene- III
i) Marlow: Though prepared for setting…….I feel in the separation.
ii) Miss Hard: I believe these sufferings……proper to regret.
iii) Marlow: The girl every moment…….painful effort to resolution.
iv) Miss Hard: ……I hope, not inferior……equal affluence?....
v) Marlow: By heavens, madam………and conscious virtue.
The above line/lines is/are taken
from the play named “She Stoops to Conquer”, written by Oliver Goldsmith. Here
the dramatist shows that how Marlow confesses his love to the bar-maid through
the conversation between Marlow and the bar-maid.
The hero of the main plot, Marlow
has a dual character. We find Marlow who is abnormally
bashful to even continue a single communication with the girls belongs to his
class. That’s why he seems as a modest person to Kate. But when she can realize
his dualism, then she comes forward to him as a bar-maid of the inn. When
Marlow finds Kate as an ordinary bar-maid, he at a very first site falls in
love with her and forces to kiss her. His seductive attitude is very striking
and shocking, but his heroism is shown in his true love for the lady. Here
Kate, as a bar-maid, also tells him that she is also comes from a good family
and her education is also not inferior as Kate has. But because of being a poor
she has become a bar maid. Then Marlow tells her that all her attitude that seems
pastoral to him at first, but now it seems as the simplicity of her. At the end
we find that Marlow is ready to break the tie of his upper class bond. But
finally in a very dramatic way Marlow comes to know that, the bar-maid whom he
loves, is no other than Kate. Thus the hero has got a change and left his dreadful manners.
Though he
is a passive character, through this conversation we can give him the crown of
hero for being so honest in his love for the bar-maid.
