Detailed explanation-1: -BARLY IN Richard III, Richard, as part of his plot to win the throne, decides to marry the Lady Anne. He undertakes her wooing at what would ap-pear to be the least propitious moment for such an enterprise, during the funeral procession for her father-in-law, Henry VI, whom Richard has murdered.
Detailed explanation-2: -He convinces Anne over her husband’s dead body to marry him, showing to what extent he can prove his own power over her. We can see how language is used well to express fear and worry in other characters too. We can see another instance where Richard uses his skills of manipulation on himself, in Act 4, Scene 2.
Detailed explanation-3: -Richard manipulates Anne by feigning gentleness and persistently praising her beauty, a technique that he subtly twists later in the scene in order to play upon Anne’s sense of guilt and obligation.
Detailed explanation-4: -Moreover, Richard gloats that Queen Anne is now dead-we can assume Richard has had her murdered-and he announces once again that his next step will be to woo and marry young Elizabeth, the daughter of the former King Edward and Queen Elizabeth.
