The setting of the excerpt and Ovid's "Pyramus and Thisbe" both involve romantic encounters in settings associated with nobility or higher social classes. However, while Ovid's story takes place within the walls of a grand castle, the excerpt portrays a scene set in the more humble surroundings of servants' quarters. Both settings contribute to the themes of love and social hierarchy present in the respective narratives.
