Perdita
The shepherd's line: "Thou mett'st with things dying, I with things new-born" (III, iii, 110-111) is treated as if it were a turning point from tragic death to comedic life. There are two others but this is the one most people agree with.

The main characters in The Winter's Tale are Leontes, King of Sicilia; Hermione, his wife; Polixenes, King of Bohemia; Perdita, their daughter; Florizel, Polixenes' son; and Paulina, a noblewoman and friend to Hermione.
Leontes and Polixenes are childhood friends who grew up together in Sicilia. They share a close bond until Leontes becomes suspicious of Polixenes' relationship with his wife, Hermione, which leads to a rift in their friendship and sets off a series of tragic events in Shakespeare's play "The Winter's Tale."
There are three strong female characters in A Winter's Tale: Perdita, Hermione and Paulina. The young female lead in the romantic comedy subplot is Perdita who ends up marrying her guy, Florizel. The main plot is about the fractured marriage of Leontes and Hermione and their eventual reunification. Hermione is the main female character in this plotline and has some heroic moments as she is tried for an offence of which she is innocent. Paulina is the most heroic female character in the play: she sticks to Leontes like a bur, reminding him constantly of his crimes through his long separation from Hermione.
