LORD OF THE FLIES: CHAPTER 10 This chapter is meant to be a little bit of comic relief. What is comic relief? And what part of this chapter is supposed to be a little funny?

Answer and Explanation:

Comic relief is a part of the narrative, which may be a sentence, a scene, a dialogue, a paragraph or any other element that has a humorous tone, even if it is quick.

In chapter 10 of "Lord of the flies" we have a quick comic relief when Jack and his gang steal Piggy's glasses. Seeing Piggy bewildered by the lack of glasses has a certain humorous tone and refers to children's games. However, this tone passes quickly when the reader realizes that this was done to make piggy fragile and easy prey.

glamis thou art, and cawdor; and shalt be what thou art promis'd; yet do i fear thy nature; it is too full o' the milk of human kindness to catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great; art not without ambition; but without the illness should attend it. what thou wouldst highly, that wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false, and yet wouldst wrongly win: thou'dst have, great glamis, that which cries, "thus thou must do, if thou have it: and that which rather thou dost fear to do than wishest should be undone." hie thee hither, that i may pour my spirits in thine ear; and chastise with the valor of my tongue all that impedes thee from the golden round, which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem to have thee crown'd withal.
