That even though this whole quarrel will be memorialized, people will come and go, and the sun will always set, and that it doesn’t really matter in the grand […]

It really helps develop this character into an antagonist. He’s selfish and cheers when he gets what he wants, even at the expense of others. He only looks after the prize […]

Lines 47 through 50 remind me of birth and death. “inclos’d in Woman’s beauteous mould” resembles a womb, […]

It appears he’s referring to Arabella and her family being mad at Lord Petre, who cut Arabella’s hair. Obviously, I would be mad too if some guy cut my hair. But I […]

It’s really sad to read, and very reflective of how many […]

It’s also been associated with vanity, as this woman is. Blondes may be portrayed as beautiful but […]
