He also looks around at everyone else as he says this. He is also sitting down. BOTTOM Masters, you ought to consider with yourselves: to bring in--God shield us!--a lion among ladies, is a most dreadful thing; for there is not a more fearful wild-fowl than your lion living; and we ought to look to 't. Bottom looks around at the others, with a very knowing look on his face. He nods slightly, prompting the rest to nod along in agreement.
In Act 1 Scene 7 when Macbeth vows to not kill Duncan as he is loyal she uses a number of methods to change his mind. Her first line is “What beast was't then that made you break your enterprise to me?” She is pointing out that he raised the idea first. She insults Macbeth's masculinity calling him a coward. She points upon her husband’s lack of courage. She tells him he is “green” “a coward”, and that he resembles the “poor cat” who wanted the fish but would not get its paws wet.
However, after she took the potion, [paragraph 23] “however gay and giddy she is, she will change altogether. She will want nothing but solitude and you,” and [paragraph 29] “You will be her sole interest in life." The old man said Diana will care only Alan, [paragraph 31] “…want to know all you do,” and [paragraph 33] “…never allow you to be tired, to sit in a draught, to neglect your food." The new Diana will love only him and [paragraph 27] “will want to be everything" to him. This means she, at the same time, will begin to become ‘the other person’ with Diana’s appearance, who passionately love him, no longer his old ‘Diana’ whom he in loves with at the very beginning, no longer
Atwood begins her poem with the speaker mysteriously introducing a secret. By writing the "Siren Song" in first person, the reader is shown how the Sirens feel about their song. They know how much people desire to hear their song and they taunt the reader by hinting that they will tell the secret if the reader gets "me out of this bird suit". The song is just a "cry for help" that the birds find "boring", which, if it was written from any other point of view, would not be known about as it is "the song nobody knows". In Homer's Odyssey, the Sirens are mythical creatures whose enchanting voices lure sailors to their deaths.
Agony Aunt Dear Romeo, I have heard your story many times before, one of woe and love. My advice to your problems is simple, do as your friend tells you, go and see the world, experience other things and enjoy yourself. For your love for this girl Rosaline, will only worsen and you will only get more miserable. You are young and you don’t know true love, maybe you don’t even know love at all. I can tell that you don’t love this Rosaline, for when you say “feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health” and “love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs, being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers’ eyes” I know that this “love” is really an infatuation, a want to be with someone, not real love.
The attitude in Atwood’s Siren Song by Margret Atwood is captured by an image of the sirens described as “picturesque and mythical.” Atwood draws her readers in by having the sirens use their sex appeal to lure in men and force them to “leap overboard in squadrons.” She then goes on and gives the readers the assumption that the sirens are bored with their beauty, and are almost sickened with the same routine and outcome. “Shall I tell you the secret, and if I do will you get me out of this bird suit?” that implies that the sirens are bored. We see that the song is “irresistible and anyone who has heard it is dead or can’t remember it.” This makes us as readers more interested. The sirens trick men with their beautiful song, and lure them into their deadly
She is cunning, resourceful, and brave. She definitely does not fit into the passive role that has been given to the more popular heroines. As in many fairy tales, the beautiful daughter is basically given away as if she is an object to a man who wants to marry her. Of course the girl’s father approves of the suitor because he appears rich, but the girl is not as impressed. She, “did not like him as much as a bride should like her bridegroom,” (Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm).
Here he definitely doesn’t this of his plan of defeat. Furthermore, Romeo said, “… Now Tybalt take the “villain” back again that late thou gavest me for Mercutio’s soul is but a little way above our heads, staying for thine to keep him company”. (3.1.116-121). Inherently, Romeo tells Tybalt to take back his insult for Mercutio’s soul is above them waiting for Tybalt to be slayed and keep him company. Meaning; he should definitely take back his insult or he will be fought and killed for the insult he had happened to have directed at
The keeper and the lion are described as ‘growing old together’ and they are both ‘moth-eaten’, further blurring the distinction between human and animal. In fact, the lion is referred to as ‘elderly’, a very human term. In return for his ministrations, the lion keeper is rewarded by being the one who ‘could stroke’ the lion’s head: a symbol of the lion’s trust in him. He also knows what it is like to ‘plunge fingers / into rough glowing fur’; this highlights both how close their relationship is, and how, like animals in the wild, it involves an intense physical exchange. The ‘glowing’ fur reflects the almost primitive power that the lion possesses.
Romeo’s rash actions, Juliet’s fast-paced response to love, and their fatal choices tragically end their lives, showcasing the unfortunate outcome of their quick actions. Inexperienced Romeo Montague’s actions regarding love are based upon impulse rather than logic. Romeo’s actions are so sudden that they are capable of significantly changing his life. Romeo and Juliet’s
