Monologue Of Mary's Suicides

Improved Essays
A rope. That was all it took for everything to happen. A rope that caused a life to be lost, tears to flow and most importantly, someone's beloved to disappear from this world. This is the story of how my beloved, Mary died because of a rope.

In the humid air of England, those who resides there would tell you, many accidents have occured before and many more would, whether it be an accident or more. Although, I have to admit, there was not one case that was as strange as Mary's. You see, Mary was not murdered, nor did she died from an accident. Instead, it was all because of a rope.

It happened during one dim and mellow evening, when I was accompanying her back to her house. With our hands filled with groceries, we were talking about the mere coincidences in life, and how we met, which I shall not mention how, as this is a story about Mary, and not me and Mary. As I was saying, we were walking and all of a sudden, a pitiful and feeble sound rang out from our left. Meow, meow. It seemed to get softer and weaker as the passing seconds went by, which by

Slowly but surely, as clear as a the world was after a constant battle of nature's crying, it happened. Mary, who was running towards the cat, tripped over that rope which was freely dangling at the edge of the bridge and then, she disappeared. Off she went and forward I came, trying my best to no avail to grab on to my love of my life, the only person I knew who died because of a rope. And that was the end. I failed. Her hand slipped, as expected from one's hands which was already slippery from the sweat she produced from carrying the grocery bags. And that is the end of how Mary, my love to me, just another person who died to all Londeners, disappeared from my life. And of course, the kitten went down with her, but not the

    On July 7, 1865, Mary Surratt walked to her death. Because of her supposed involvement in Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, Mary was sentenced to death by hanging (Kingseed). Mary transferred binoculars and shooting irons to her tavern for Booth, lied to the authorities claiming to not know Lewis Powell, and her son, John H. Surratt Jr., was a confederate spy and was suspected of helping with the president’s assassination. This evidence was enough for Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, the official in charge of locating and capturing Lincoln’s killer and conspirators, to condemn Mary Surratt to death. There have been many arguments and opinions over the years about whether or not Mary’s sentence was justified.…

    St. Helena and the Emperor Constantine Presented to the Holy Trinity by the Virgin Mary was the piece of art work that stuck out to me the most which made me choose to write my analysis essay on this amazing well thought out art work. Some of my reasoning behind choosing this piece of art is the amazing story that it shares in just one picture. Just by looking at this piece of art you can tell there is so much emotion and knowledge behind making this painting. From observing this work, it made me want to know more about what exactly is trying to be captured through a picture instead of the use of words. St. Helena and the Emperor Constantine Presented to the Holy Trinity by the Virgin Mary was created by a famous Italian rococo…

    Although this thesis is still being revised, it states: Dario Fo had political and social triggers that led him down the path to creating a more modern—and revolutionary—giullare storytelling style that is comprehensible to masses around the world. I chose my focus(es) for multiple reasons. The first is that I need to understand why he revised biblical stories and, specifically, “Mary Under the Cross”. I believe if I understand why he chose it politically and socially, I can connect to it as well and create a better final product. Additionally, it is essential that I comprehend how it was revised by Fo and—hopefully—it will be helpful to my work on the scene.…

    As Vida Winter says in the beginning of the story "all children mythologize their birth". But for Aurelius that was not the case, he had nothing but to construct a mythology of his birth since Mrs. Love found him on the porch as a infant. There is no one in the book who can connect and relate with him to the reality of his history. Mrs. Love telling her story proves the central mystery of Aurelius's background. “Because if Mrs. Love found me, it can only mean that before that happened, someone else, some other person, some mother must have—”.…

    Mary perhaps saw Pechorin as a foe during her mother’s anecdote about Pechorin’s antics in Petersburg, such a figure would surely be popular. She certainly saw him as one after he strategically began their game on the boulevard and proceeded to rob her of many young men vying for her attention. She made it an official game with her comment that evening, as well as her “...glances, falling upon [him], expressed vexation while striving to express indifference.” He continued to prove he was better at attracting society members and she reacted with slander. He buys a rug she desires and places it on his horses and parades it by her window.…

    The physical examination shows that there was blunt trauma to the head and the wound indicated a fall against a solid object. The only visible injury was a small head wound at the right temple. This shows that suicide and homicide are unlikely to be the manner of death, because there would've been more injuries if it had been a homicide or a suicide. It wouldn't be unknown because there is enough evidence to determine a possible cause of death. I believe that Anna's death was most likely accidental or natural.…

    “At that point, Mary Maloney simply walked up behind him and without any pause, she swung the big frozen leg of lamb high in the air and brought it down as hard as she could on the back of his head.” From only reading this, the reader is simply astounded. Imagine seeing this comical scene in a movie. Viewers would be left stupefied and full of laughter. “Lamb to the Slaughter” would make a phenomenal movie for teenage audiences and Roald Dahl fans.…

    As some of you might know I did my research topic on Mary Dyer. I felt that she was an inspiration for all who have suffered from religious persecution. Dyer was brave, strong, and had a lot of faith in what she believed in. Regardless of the repercussions, she continued on in her life to do what she felt was right by God. Not many people would have the courage to stand up for what they believe is right and to actually put it into action as well.…

    It is said that Poe had a very sad life which is said that he wrote in this style because it was probably based on his life. On the other hand, Faulkner experienced both elation and soul-shocking sadness during his career; he was an intensely private man. “It is perhaps ironic that Faulkner was so deeply private, for details from his private life, and even his prehistory, figure so prominently in his fiction” (Padgett). Finally, Roald Dahl was known for his beloved, weird classic children’s book. In his writing he always used little cruelty but never without humor; was a thrilling mixture of the grotesque and comic.…

    The fact that we are extraordinarily different makes us unique. Embracing what makes us dissimilar while others tend to feel uncomfortable becomes an advantage in today's society. “You Can Go Home Again: A Sequence” by Mary TallMountain, and “Waiting at the Edge: Words toward a Life” by Maurice Kenny both focus on a search for identity. Both individuals discover a sense of identity despite the harsh experiences at school, because of the influence of their fathers, and due to their profound love for writing.…

    When it comes to intimate relationships, Mary is subconsciously interested in intimate partner with familiar personalities. Mary’s latest ex-boyfriend that we are aware of is aggressive and dominant. In the conversation, “when aggravated and/or drunk, he would have screaming fits, and sometimes during the night when he was drunk, he would also force Mary into sexual activity—even when she made it clear she was not interested.” Most of Mary’s intimate partners have behavioral patterns to be substance dependent, sexually aggressive, and financially unreliable. As a counselor, I assume Mary’s father dominated and controlled her mother; thus, she views her parents’ relationship to be normal.…

    In ancient societies rituals played a key role in the structure of the community. Because lifespans were much shorter, boys needed to come of age quicker in order to replenish the supply of adults to lead the group. Today, many rituals for coming of age are based off our ancestors, however, they have lost their importance and become an empty process. Modern writers, like T.S. Eliot, Jeffery Eugenides, and William Maxwell, now talk of how this loss of ritual and thus the loss of a spiritual and physical connection to a higher power is leading to the decay of civilization and a rocky path to adulthood .…
