She fell in love with John Proctor after their affair, her morals
and her whole life began to fall apart. She started to be overcome with her
feelings of love, and her passion for John was enormous. After she was
denied these things she could no longer control herself, and her whole
reason for living became to get back John. This shows that when a person is

The Merchant Of Venice: The Relationship Between Antonio And Bassanio
Number of words: 279 | Number of pages: 2.... Portia, a female.
Also, there is another pair who I am suspicious about. They are Salanio and
Salerio. The reason is that they are always together, just like siamese twins.

Number of words: 741 | Number of pages: 3.... speaking with Lady Macbeth he recants and proclaims,"I am settled,
and bend up/Each corporal agent to this terrible feat"(I.vii.79-80). There is
nothing supernatural to be found in a man being swayed by the woman he loves, as

Second, the witches have to be dispelled as a source of Macbeth's

that the weird sisters first address Macbeth with,"All hail, Macbeth! hail to
thee Thane of Cawdor!"(I.iii.49), a title which not even Macbeth is aware he has
been awarded. Even stranger i .....
