The Revenge of Hop-Frog

I thought that this was a very good representation of good and evil. Hop Frog felt justified to incinerate the king in his court because the crippled dwarf had been ridiculed many a time.
"His fool, or professional jester, was not only a fool, however. His value was trebled in the eyes of the king, by the fact of his being also a dwarf and a cripple. Dwarfs were as common at court, in those days, as fools; and many monarchs would have found it difficult to get through their days (days are rather longer at court than elsewhere) without both a jester to laugh with, and a dwarf to laugh at." This represents how the dark romantics differed from the transcendentalists. The transcendentalists believed that any strong feeling came from god himself; so no true feeling could be evil. In the end, I felt happy for the dwarf. Even though he had just committed a horrible deed. The end result was good for the dwarf and bad for the king. Most things happen that way though, If I was to get a very high paying job, someone who needed it more would not receive it. Good for me, bad for them. When the lion captures the gazelle, the lion's pride eats that day, but it is the gazelle's last. Good for the lion, bad for the gazelle. "It came from the fang-like teeth of the dwarf, who ground them and gnashed them as he foamed at the mouth, and glared, with an expression of maniacal rage, into the upturned countenances of the king and his seven companions."Ah, ha!" said at length the infuriated jester. "Ah, ha! I begin to see who these people are now!" Here, pretending to scrutinize the king more closely, he held the flambeau to the flaxen coat which enveloped him, and which instantly burst into a sheet of vivid flame."
