A bit of Dramatic irony is how Marguerite hasn't any idea that Percy is the Pimpernel, and we know from almost the beginning. Another is how Bibot swears that Percy won't get through his gate, and he lets him right through at the first mention of "plague!"

An example of irony in Romeo and Juliet occurred in Act 1, Scene 5 when Juliet tells her nurse to go find out if Romeo is married, saying that her wedding bed would be her grave if he was. The audience knows how that would turn out. An example of dramatic irony in Hamlet is when Hamlet thinks he's talking to a ghost, but is really crazy. The audience knows what is happening with each character in the play, even though the individual characters in the play do not.

There are thousands of people at WikiAnswers willing to help you out. However, just giving you test or homework answers wouldn't be helping you at all. It would actually be cheating and that is not what the site is all about.

It always helps to search for a third party website (like this one) that can help explain the material.

If you would like some tips or help getting through your homework, there is a category just for this.

See Learning Tips:

You may browse the category or post your own question.
