From this we can infer that both the bird and the boy are very frail and feeble. In the story, James Hurst illustrates that both the ibis and Doodle are fragile and weak, by making both the scarlet ibis and the boy innocent and vulnerable. The author does this describes the ibis’ feathers as flying everywhere and having loosely hung wings. Doodle on the other hand, cannot “get too excited, too hot, too cold, or too tired and that he must be treated gently” (p. 2, col. 1, lines. 22 – 23).
After the exotic bird tumbled out of the top of the tree to the ground the narrator realizes, “Even death did not mar its grace” (Hurst 779). The exotic bird even after it passed away still had all of the beauty and grace it had when it was still living, but in Doodles case he died with the all of fragileness he left earth with. After the narrator’s father finds out what kind of bird it is the narrator realizes, “How many miles it had traveled to die like this, in our yard, beneath the bleeding tree” (Hurst 779). The scarlet ibis that passed away in the Armstrong family’s yard had the same fate Doodle did, because how many obstacles Doodle had to overcome to die the way he did, on the side of the road, huddled beneath a red nightshade bush. 5.

He does love her, but because of the hierarchy in their household, and because he is a physician, he firmly believes that he is right in everything he is doing. Whether he is right or wrong doesn’t make a difference, because no matter what she does or say, his wife’s voice is never heard. It gets very noticeable that her entrapment is only making her case worse. When she tried to explain to him the effects that the wallpaper was having on her, “he [says] that [she] was letting it get the better of [her]” (2). He wasn’t supportive, and did not make any effort to try and let her express her feelings, which made her isolated even more.

This exemplifies Hamlet’s lack of empathy when the ghost appeared before him
