Horses of the Night

Horses of the Night

1.It is possible to be both gentle and ruthless at the same time, because Vanessa put the sattle gently back on the shelf, but ruthlessly aswell because as she was doing it, she pprobably thought of Chris, and how he said he had horses, but they are not like the horses he describes.

2. Chris is a character to sympathize with because he had grown up in the north, and had to leave, because his father died. He then had to live a hard life with Grandfather conner, always being put down because of his upbringing, and his parents.

3. Vanessa is a dynamic character. She ages and grows throughout the text. In the beginning she does not want Chris to even come, but becomes dependant on him, as her friend. She in the end, does not want Chris to leave, and is upset when he does.
4. The saddle is a symbol, because when Vanessa and Chris had spoken, he told her about his horses,. When she arrived at his home, she came to foind, that yes he had horses, but not the kind of horses he explained.

Hamlet Act 2, Scene 1 Summary.

Act two, Scene one of HAMLET begins with Polonious and Reynaldo. Polonious is having Reynaldo bring money and notes to Laertes in Paris. While there, Polonois has requested that Reynaldo spy on Laertes, to see if he truley is going to school as he claims, or if he is just getting into trouble. Reynaldo is told to be careful as he does, so he does not get untruthful answers. He is to talk around, claiming to know Laertes to do certain things, to find out if people agree or disagree with his comments.

As Reynaldo leaves, Ophelia comes in, and begins to tell Polonious about Hamlet's odd behaviour. She explains that Hamlet came in, clothes askew,
"no hat upon his head, his stocking fouled,
ungarteredd and down-gyveed to his ankle" (P.39, L81)
These actions by Hamlet lead Polonious to believe he is "Mad for thy love" (P39. L87) and uset that he is no longer aloud to see Ophelia. Together Polonius and Ophelia go to inform the King of Hamlets actions.
