Conflict‚ because of its predominance in the context of the early seventeenth century Renaissance‚ forms the basis of the behaviour of key characters in the play‚ particularly in ethical and religious confusion

    was there at that time of night‚ I stopped for a while. When I got there‚ however‚ vague memories of stories about ghosts started back to my mind. Soon I was gripped with fear and my heel. I ran as fast as I could‚ and when I reached home‚ I could hardly speak. However‚ the next day‚ I visited the place again to make sure that the woman is actually a real person and not a ghost.
