Hermia Monologue

The following passage was spoken by Hermia in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. She believes that her former friend, Helena, has stolen her love from her. Consider how Hermia is characterized in this passage and how Shakespeare uses various literary devices to create this characterization.

Puppet? why so? ay, that way goes the game.
Now I perceive that she hath made compare
Between our statures; she hath urged her height;
And with her personage, her tall personage,
Her height, forsooth, she hath prevail'd with him.
And are you grown so high in his esteem;
Because I am so dwarfish and so low?
How low am I, thou painted maypole? speak;
How low am I? I am not yet so low
But that my nails can reach unto thine eyes.
