In "Cousin Kate"‚ Rossetti gives messages about an abuse of power. The "Lord" "lured" the narrator to his "palace home".

10/16/11 Paper #1 Art History 100 I chose the artwork “The Denial of St. Peter” attributed to Master Jacomo in the early mid-17th century made using either French or Italian style which consisted of oil on canvas. The physical condition of the painting looks good for how old it is and it looks clean. The painting represents a scene of a Roman guard interrogating St. Peter and a servant girl. St. Peter denies the fact that he is a follower of Jesus to the Roman soldier as the woman looks on. When

Initially‚ I imagined the narrator to feel a mixture of anxiety and excitement due to the author using words like
