    “And though she be but little‚ she is fierce.” This quotation from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream is not only one of his more famous quotations‚ but is also an accurate representation of Shakespeare’s last play: The Tempest.

It is through diction‚ sound devices‚ irony‚ and figurative language that Shakespeare reveals his outlook on death and grief.
