The answer is: "What is your parentage? 'Above my fortunes, yet my state is well. I am a gentleman'-rill be sworn thou art, Thy tongue, thy face, thy limbs, actions, and spirit, Do give thee five-fold blazon."

Explanation: In this passage from Act I, Scene V of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night," Olivia's interest in Cesario's (Viola's) social rank is evident when she inquires about Cesario's parentage. This question directly addresses the social hierarchy and the importance of knowing someone's background and status. Olivia's subsequent lines, where she acknowledges Cesario's noble demeanor and attributes, further emphasize her consideration of social rank. She notes that Cesario's qualities are befitting of a gentleman, which indicates her awareness and concern for social standing. This reflects the Elizabethan societal norms where social position was crucial, and marriages or relationships across different social ranks were generally frowned upon.
