Class12 Ke English prose ka central idea

Answer 1

                 Mercy Central Idea

In this poem Shakespeare eulogizes the divine quality of

mercy. He writes that mercy cannot be forced out from a human heart; it gushes

out of a heart full of love and falls as liberally as rain from heaven.

He states that mercy is full of blessings; it blesses not

only the giver, but the receiver also. The quality of mercy enhances the beauty

and grace of a monarch more than his costliest crown.

Shakespeare writes that mercy is more potent than the power

of a king’s scepter; it is in a just and wise king’s heart. Mercy is a divine

quality that makes its possessor godlike. Even an earthly king becomes godlike

when he blends mercy with his justice.
