The phrase I will be analyzing is “Man is a fallen being. He is gripped by original sin”. There are two possible interpretations of this phrase which will apply to Lord of the Flies. Both of these are related to Abrahamic religions and the phrase is referring to “The Original Sin” or the Seven Deadly Sins.

Spiders flee before the Basilisk, for it is their mortal enemy, and the Basilisk flees only from the crowing of the rooster, which is fatal to it. Most of this description is what Pliny the Elder describes in his Natural History. The only difference is that Pliny says that the weasel destroys the basilisk, Rowling having probably changed this so that Fawkes could save Harry rather than a regular weasel.

I was somehow chained to my chair, and she forced me to play chess... and then she reached out, smiling, and patted me on the head as the flames roared and licked at the backs of our chairs... and the black tendrils of smoke snaked around us like an evil vine, as if binding us together...
