    named Lyca falls asleep in the wilderness under a tree. While her parents worry about her, she sleeps innocently in the woods with a lion prancing around her while she slumbers.

In the second poem, found in "Experience," the feeling shifts from innocence to suggest a subversive course of love exploration. The young girl, Ona, discovers passion only to find that her father has a negative view

    160436. [IMAGE] We went to Sheringham for various reasons and chose it over other places around the area. The main reason was because Sheringham has an ideal example of what the coastline directly behind the sea is like both protected and unprotected, which contrast well.

    The Role of Chorus in Medea In section 18 of the Poetics Aristotle criticizes Euripides for not allowing "the chorus to be one of the actors and to be a part of the whole and to share in the dramatic action, . . . as in Sophocles."

When he finally asked about her, he said “How is your patient, doctor?” (5.3.37). Referring to her as a "patient," rather than using a more affectionate term to express his concern for her health, he did not accompany her and stayed focused on his power, rather than his wife's well-being. This shows that Lady Macbeth was never his priority, and he has
