    I believe that the correct answer is the first option. In Shakespeare’s "Hamlet" (Act IV, scene VII) Laertes says his goodbye to Ophelia, after her death, and uses the word woman refers to female weakness (his crying). In these lines, Laertes promises that he would cry no more, as Ophelia had too much water already (she drowned) : "Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia,/And therefore I forbid my tears."
