RETURN TO ROUND TWO

hubris [hew‐bris] or hybris, the Greek word for ‘insolence’ or ‘affront’, applied to the arrogance or pride of the protagonist in a tragedy in which he or she defies moral laws or the prohibitions of the gods. The protagonist's transgression or hamartia leads eventually to his or her downfall, which may be understood as divine retribution or nemesis. Hubris is commonly translated as ‘overweening (i.e. excessively presumptuous) pride’. In proverbial terms, hubris is thus the pride that comes before a fall.

Frost is fantastically realized in this one. His realistic quality is magnificent in contrast to the broad strokes of the other subjects. The imagery is effective.

I felt the contrast worked out quite well also. I didn't originally plan to do it that way, but it just came together in that fashion.

The effect of him raising his own shackle to throw is especially redolent.
