Eulogy of Mrytle WIlson
Wilson is more affected by Myrtles death than he lets on. Therefore, I wrote this eulogy as Wilson for Myrtle to show the depth and complexity of their relationship. I tried to show Willows feelings for Myrtle, rather than a spiritless man as depicted with the things he did for Myrtle. Including the things Myrtle did for Wilson shows his appreciation and have it off for her. Due to the lack of information In the novel, some of the content was crafted based on scenes In the novel and from my thoughts of their relationship.By Including the buddy-buddy relationship between the couple, It every last(predicate)ows the readers to better understand why Wilson killed Gatsby and himself. The vocabulary used is simple, as Wilson was uneducated. The use of constant repetition and similar sentence structure shows that Wilson was a simple man and that he did not grorchard apple tree how to express himself clearly. It also emphasizes on the extent of his love and guilt. Short sentences are us ed to depict Willows unresisting and shy nature. There is a use of dramatic irony by showing how happy Wilson was when Myrtle pass the weekend with her friends, and when she wore nice dresses she bought tit her savings.Wilson is absorbed about the affair, un standardised the audience. This shows how the American Dream Is flawed. Although Wilson worked hard and shower Myrtle with love, Myrtle still chose Tom. It also shows how materialistic people were back then. Myrtle chose Wilson and on his appearance and now fatalitys to be with Tom for his wealth. This eulogy is written in the first person perspective to show intimacy between the two. so mavenr of using a second person perspective to describe Myrtle, It shows Willows deep attachment to his dead wife. 300 words) Good morning, I am George Wilson, Myrtles husband. I would like to start off by thanking every single one of you for your presence today. Myrtle would be happy If she were still here. Myrtle, you are the love of my life. You entered my life on a fateful Friday 15 years ago, wearing a pink-laced dress, topped with a cream hat. You danced with such beauty, elegance and grace.

The day of the gathering drew closer and closer. I still had yet to get enough money for a suit. I asked God continuously for help, and He answered my prayer. I was able to borrow a suit from a customer after begging him for it. The quality of the silk radio link I bought came with a hefty price, but it was all value it.I neer once regretted all the hard work put in to get that suit, because it brought me a step closer to you, y dear. I mark the rejoice on your face, that unspeakable Joy, when I proposed. I remember how your face turned crimson. I remember the 20 graceful steps you took down the aisle, towards me. You wore a hand crafted pristine white gown, fitted with laces and frills. It was exactly the one you told me about, the one you dreamed of since young.
