TASK	FINDINGS	LINE NUMBER
Search for COMPARISONS your character has, choose several that particularly match your character’s personality, summarize or quote them	“Where Love is throned.” I think that when Viola uses the word “throned” she’s referring to how important love is, and how much power it can have over other things	910
Find a passage that is thick with words that suggest a certain CATEGORY. Name the category and list the words that fit in it	Negative -       Denial -       Hopeless -       Sad	1010 – 1020
Look for lines with a strong sense of DRAMATIC IRONY, lines where the audience knows more than one of the characters	I used the same passage as the one above because I thought it was the most useful passage from Viola in this scene. It shows a good example of irony because she’s telling Orsino about loving a girl and she secretly loves him.  Orsino thinks she’s a man so continues talking to her about the subject as she’s referring to herself the whole time.	1010 - 1020
Consider how your character refers to himself or herself. What style of SELF CHARACTERIZATION is used	When Viola says, “But if she cannot love you, sir?” shows that Viola might be jealous of Olivia, since Orsino seems to be interested in her. Viola is maybe trying to talk him out of perusing Olivia without being too obvious.	985
