"He lifted up from the trampled dust what was left of the cloak and kissing it again and again carried it to the mulberry tree. “Now,” he said, “you shall drink my blood too.” He drew his sword and plunged it into his side"- "Pyramus and Thisbe" paragraph 5
In Romeo and Juliet act 5 scene 3 "Death, that hath sucked the honey of thy breath,
Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty.
Thou art not conquered. Beauty's ensign yet
Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks" and then he drinks the poison an important aspect of both stories is the demise of the two lovers.

In Pyramus and Thisbe, the text says, " She kissed his cold lips and begged him to look at her, to speak to her. "It is I, your Thisbe, your dearest," she cried to him. At the sound of her name he opened his heavy eyes for one look. Then death closed them". Then, in Romeo and Juliet, Act 5 scene 3, it reads "I will kiss your lips. Perhaps there's still some poison on them, to make me die with a medicinal kiss.(she kisses him) Your lips are warm." Both Juliet and Thisbe kiss their male characters for one last breath before the kill themselves. ]]> 2018-12-05 19:10:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jenna_garrett1/314caav6wpak/wish/311546144 jenna_garrett1 https://padlet.com/jenna_garrett1/314caav6wpak/wish/311546210 In both Romeo and Juliet and "Pyramus and Thisbe" there were two people who were forbidden to love each other. Both pairs wanted to marry each other, but their parents forbid it. Because of how strong their love was for each other, they got married anyway. Paragraph 2 of "Pyramus and Thisbe" states, "They longed to marry, but their parents forbade. Love, however, cannot be forbidden." They wanted to spend the rest of their lives together, and they would do anything to make that happen. In lines 7-9 of the prologue of Romeo and Juliet states, "Doth with their death bury their parents' strife./
The fearful passage of their death-marked love/
And the continuance of their parents' rage,...". This is explaining how their parents did not allow them to get married. An important aspect of the storyline of both Romeo and Juliet and "Pyramus and Thisbe" is forbidden love between two lovers.

"The lioness came upon it on her way back to her lair and she mouthed it and tore it before disappearing into the woods." "Her body sleeps in Capels' tomb, And her immortal part with angels lives, I saw her laid low in her kindred's vault." "Then I defy you, Stars! (5. 3. 39)]]> 2018-12-05 19:12:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jenna_garrett1/314caav6wpak/wish/311547186 amelia_seaman https://padlet.com/jenna_garrett1/314caav6wpak/wish/311547237 In "Pyramus and Thisbe", Pyramus and Thisbe planed to sneak out and meet each other. As stated in paragraph 4, "They decided that that very night they would try to slip away and steal out through the city into the open country where at last they could be together in freedom. They agreed to meet at a well-known place, the Tomb of Ninus, under a tree there, a tall mulberry full of snow-white berries, near which a cool spring bubbled up."
In Romeo and Juliet they had a plan so Juliet can meet with Romeo and leave Verona and go to Mantua. "Go home, be merry. Give consent To marry Paris. Wednesday is tomorrow. Tomorrow night look that thou lie alone. Let not the Nurse lie with thee in thy chamber. (shows her a vial) Take thou this vial. And in this borrowed likeness of shrunk death
Thou shalt continue two and forty hours, And then awake as from a pleasant sleep. Now, when the bridegroom in the morning comes To rouse thee from thy bed, there art thou dead. Then, as the manner of our country is, In thy best robes uncovered on the bier. Thou shalt be borne to that same ancient vault. Where all the kindred of the Capulets lie. In the meantime, against thou shalt awake, Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift, And hither shall he come, and he and I Will watch thy waking, and that very night Shall Romeo bear thee hence to Mantua.
And this shall free thee from this present shame, If no inconstant toy, nor womanish fear, Abate thy valor in the acting it." (4.1.90-120).
