He says that he is doing one thing, but he really is doing something else.

Because after they gave in to that lust, they tarted planning different ways in order to fulfill that lust.

Only someone with an alternate motive would have done that.

The line before they were also called villains, so now with different intensions, his actions could change.

They knew that death sneaks up on people, and here they become so infatuated with the gold that they forget that.

Which probably means that he is death as well.

For example, when you are writing a essay for a class about a current issue and you are looking up articles about...whatever it is that you are researching, we'll say pufferfish. So you are looking for your articles and you come across the perfect one. You right down what was said and then forgot to cite it when you put it in your essay. Or you simply just re-worded a couple places so that you could say that you were the one to write it. While you did change a few things to our own words, it still isn't your idea. To avoid this Always remember to cite things, its easier said than done. And when you are not sure when or where to site just do it in case! And if you really don't know, ask someone!! Our teachers and parents didn't go to school so that they could never tach us anything. Fri, 02 Sep 2016 11:31:04 -0400
