'I prithee now . . .'

The expression means :

  • A.I prevent you.
  • B.I warn you.
  • C.I request you.
  • D.I order you.

Answer: C

'I prithee now' means I request you.

'Prithee' is an old contraction of 'I pray thee', meaning 'please' or 'I ask you'. In older English it was used to make a polite request.

It does not mean to prevent, warn or order; it is a softening word of polite asking.
