1. Edith Hamilton, he was talking about Pyramus and Thisbe. how even if they were separated by a wall they still found a way to talk to each other by whispering they couldn’t be together physically but talking was just enough.
2. This means that no matter what that anyone can love. Pyramus and Thisbe are a prime example. Love can always find a way, and the more you try to keep someone from loving they end up loving more.
3. This quote is an example of a metaphor. the quote is comparing love being forbidden to a flame being covered but still burning hotter. it does not use the words “like” or “as” and its making a comparison by using an example.
