Alessio Sarraf's Elegy

The "Elegy for Tibullus" by Ovid was basically starting with grief to more grief. In all three of the stories they all begin with an example of grief. But in the other two they ended up differently, like in William Wordsworth's it was grief to grief and in Michael Collier's it was grief to consolation. In Ovid's story, a quote was said, "No less was Venus stunned by her Tibullus's death."Line (15). In the end of Ovid's story it ended with more grief. An example of this would be for instance if Jacob dies, and his friend Hunter is stunned, it wouldn't be as bad and important as if Jeff Hardy felt bad for Jacob. That is because Jeff Hardy is more important than Hunter.
