.... begins as , “Of the last bitter hour come like a blight”. An indication of not ever returning back to the earth is also demonstrated when he says that over the spirit, and sad images are present. A constant effect of nature is shown in line 14. Here nature is predictable and the same throughout its surrounding. Day in and day out it remains as it was before. “ To Nature’s teachings, while form all around - Earth and her waters, and the depths of air, - Comes a still voice - “. Nature here has many different languages. Poetic fancy and imagination(gaining deeper truths-Di .....

.... his good reputation in Salem. Such a decision demonstrates his impulsive characteristic, which he has never considered the possible consequences to his family as a result of his suicide.

.... Brutus loves Caesar, but would not allow him to "climber-upward…He then unto the ladder turns his back…"(act 2, scene 1, ll.24,26). As the quote says, Brutus would not allow Caesar to rise to power and then turn his back onto the people of Rome.

.... Pollock, one of Canada’s great female playwrights and a strong leader of the popular feminist movement, is one example of a writer that breaks Aristotle’s mold. Her play “Blood Relations” sits on the edge of what Aristotle would call tragedy. Aristotle states that the form of tragedy is an “imitation of a noble and complete action, having the proper magnitude”(Aristotle 6).
