Miranda.
FERDINAND
...for several virtues
Have I liked several women; never any
With so fun soul, but some defect in her
Did quarrel with the noblest grace she owed
And put it to the foil: but you, O you,
So perfect and so peerless, are created
Of every creature's best!
Based on the passage, what idea is best conveyed by Ferdinand's choice of
the phrase "put it to the foil"?
a. the womans defects were more powerful than their graces
b. the womans defects were as important to him as their graces
c. the womans defects were all of the same type
d. the womans defects were unimportant to him
