Shaw indicates to the reader that it is Eliza who is a respectable character, despite her low-class status and poverty. Explain how Shaw uses the perspective of the female characters, Eliza and Mrs. Pearce, to provide a critique of Henry Higgins and his dehumanizing treatment. Using at least two pieces of evidence from the passage, state Shaw’s critique of Higgins and how it is revealed through the reactions and comments of the female characters.

Explanation:

There were four social classes in Elizabethan England. Nobility were the highest social class below the Queen in Elizabethan England. Nobles were the lords and ladies. They were rich and powerful and were the smallest of all the social classes. There were only about 50 noble families during the reign of Elizabeth the First. To become a noble, a person had to be granted the title by the king or queen. The title of nobility was also passed through family blood lines. Once a person was a noble, they had to commit a serious crime in order to be stripped of the title. (1)

covert: hidden or secret

candid: truthful and straightforward

what i get from these phrases is covert means undercover or underground and that's where the flower is in april. on the other hand, may is the month where flowers start to bloom and thats the reason why candid is being used as a word to describe the blossoming period of a flower.

hope this answer you.
