Pyramus and Thisbe


Plot Summary 
The two people live next door to each other.Pyramus a handsome gentleman and Thisbe a lovely Eastern girl.
Since they lived next door to each other, they got to know each other . Eventually, they fell in love. They were going to be married but their parents disagree with them. They found a way to communicate through the wall between the houses. They were so much in love that they decided to run away and to be together. They were going to meet at Ninus Tomb because there was a tree. Thisbe arrived first and waited for her love to arrive. All of sudden, a lioness appeared and Thisbe ran off and hide in a cave. When Pyramus finally arrived, he found the bloody veil, which the lion had chewed on. He blamed himself for her death and begged for the lions to come to kill him.Then, he plunged his sword into his body. When Thisbe finally came out from hiding, she found his limp body lying there. she tore of her hair in a rage.


The story of Pyramus and Thisbe really attracts me. I enjoyed reading how these two people fell in love and without the blessing of their parents they ran away. It shows devotion to some else than yourself. They thought that young people are so much in love that they would kill themselves for each other is amazing. My favourite part of the story is the ending. Although it is sad that they kill themselves for each other, it is amazing that they would do it for their special love at their younger age. It definitely brings depth to the story. The fact is, this story is really good and it will be the inspiration to all the lovers out there. At the same time, I recommend this story to all young couples who seeking for love. It shows that it takes commitment to have a successful relationship and love defines all odds.
