after she [thisbe] had perceived her own garment, and beheld, too, the ivory sheath without its sword, she said, "tis thy own hand, and love, that has destroyed thee, ill-fated youth! i, too, have a hand bold enough for this one purpose; i have love as well; this shall give me strength for the wound. i will follow thee in thy death". .thus she said; and having fixed the point under the lower part of her breast, she fell upon the sword, which still was reeking with his blood.
[ovid, metamorphoses]

juliet: "what's here? a cup, clos'd in my true love's hand?
poison, i see, hath been his timeless end.
o churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop
to me after? i will kiss thy lips.
haply some poison yet doth hang on them
to make me die with a restorative. [kisses him.]
thy lips are warm! [snatches romeo's dagger.]
this is thy sheath; there rest, and let me die. [she stabs herself and falls on romeo's body.]
[shakespeare, romeo and juliet]
shakespeare's scene is clearly influenced by ovid's. what is one important difference between the two passages?
a) juliet is decides romeo is not worth it, while thisbe kills herself for love.
b) thisbe tries to poison herself, but juliet decides to live.
c) juliet considers poisoning herself before stabbing herself, while thisbe simply stabs herself.
d) thisbe is happy that her lover is dead, but juliet is very sad.
