Answer:

He wants the king’s complete attention.

He is afraid of someone pointing out the error of his false accusations.

Explanation:

The doctor, to whom the text refers, was a man of good character, a good professional and someone with many positive characteristics. All of this made the king admire the doctor and give him a lot of attention. So much attention that it made the grand vizier jealous.

The grand vizier used to have the king's intention and did not want to share it with anyone. For this reason, he decided to create false accusations to tarnish the doctor's reputation and make the king begin to see the doctor with a bad eye. He decided to make up stories that accused the doctor of treason and murder, but as he was afraid that someone would deny these stories, the grand-vizier decided to speak to the king immediately, before he met someone else.

beginning of line/verse/sentence.  That

said, repetition is quite the effective literary device when the desired effect

is to emphasize in order to highlight importance.

Then after that, the author lets go of his past making a hindered to them no more: "Old Past, let go, and drop i' the sea, Till fathomless waters cover thee!"
