King Lear MC Quiz Corrections

If you have incorrect answers on today's quiz, or if you have incorrect answers remaining on quizzes after your re-take opportunity, you may recover credit for each wrong item by submitting a correction.  

Each correction must clearly, accurately, and fully explain that the correct answer is an what specifically about the question, text, and response makes it the right answer. When I read the answer, I should be able to understand your meaning without referring to the text. 

Ex: 
#41: (a). Just before he says "that way madness lies," Lear has been thinking about how he gave everything to his daughters "with a frank heart" and yet they have turned on him. He realizes that is he keeps thinking about this injustice, he will go crazy.

#43: (c) Because the other three are present. There is ellipsis in the line "Wine lov'd I deeply, dice dearly." Lines 88-9 have parallel structure, and Edgar uses a metaphor, comparing himself to a wolf, dog, and lion.
