which lines in this excerpt from arthur conan doyle's “the contest” suggest that emperor nero was ruthless?

a(an hour later the shepherd was well on his way to his mountain home, and about the same time the emperor, having received the chaplet of olympia for the incomparable excellence of his performance, was making inquiries with a frowning brow as to who the insolent person might be who had dared to utter such contemptuous criticisms.)

b(“bring him to me here this instant,” said he, “and let marcus with his knife and branding-iron be in attendance.”)

“if it you, great caesar,” said arsenius platus, the officer of attendance, “the man cannot be found, and there are some very strange rumours flying about.”

c(“rumours! ” cried the angry nero. “what do you mean, arsenius? i tell you that the fellow was an ignorant upstart, with the bearing of a boor and the voice of a peacock.)
i tell you also that there are a good many who are as guilty as he among the people, for i heard them with my own ears raise cheers for him when he had sung his ridiculous ode.

d(i have half a mind to burn their town about their ears so that they may remember my visit.”)

“it is not to be wondered at if he won their votes, caesar,” said the soldier, “for from what i hear it would have been no disgrace had you, even you, been conquered in this conquest.”

e(“i conquered! you are mad, arsenius. what do you mean? ”)

“none know him, great caesar! he came from the mountains, and he disappeared into the mountains. you marked the wildness and strange beauty of his face.
f(it is whispered that for once the great god pan has condescended to measure himself against a mortal.”)

the play romeo and juliet was one of the most famous love tragedies ever written. this love story unfortunately had a fatal ending. many people argue over why the lovers had died, was it over free will or fate?  

the death of romeo and juliet was partially because of free will. the fact that romeo and juliet got married knowing that there was a bitter feud between their families, the montague and capulet’s. this feud brought on many problems, such as the murder of tybalt by romeo. juliet knew that this might be a problem for her and romeo. juliet had said: “what’s in a name”? which explains her ill fate of being a capulet and romeo being a montague. when romeo tells his servant “ ay, mine own…show more content…

i believe they had died over the love they had for each other, strong enough that their lives could end so suddenly if something horrible had come between them, and that was exactly how it happened. this tragedy occurred within five days of the two meeting, they experienced love at first sight, got married and quickly were dead. free will became a part of this when juliet decided to take friar laurence’s advise in inhaling a potion that will make people assume she is died but will awake in 42 hours prier to when she took it. when romeo had heard the news that juliet was dead, he assumed it was true, and responded with the line; “well juliet, i will lay with thee tonight”. to me this line indicated how he feels for juliet by dying in her will. the fact that free will didn’t take control of the story; it left fate to be the murder of the lovers. fate first kicked in when their eyes met at the capulet party. when romeo and juliet spoke, their words had powerful contentment; they had such a strong feeling for one another that they could lay in each other’s arms forever. their happiness didn’t last long; there were many reasons for this, for example; the marriage lord capulet arranged between paris and juliet. i believe that the plot of the play thus far leads the audience to believe that the deaths were a result of fate. the last act will determine once and for all if it is fate or free will. romeo again challenges fate.
