ny countries in subjection . . . Or more presumptuous by predilection Than Holofernes. Fortune ever fair Kissed him and with such a lecherous affection He lost his head before he was aware. It was not only that he made a wraith Of the world's wealth and plundered liberty, He made his enemies renounce their faith: . . . . . . Judith, a woman, had the strength to smite. Off went his sleepy head and from the tent She crept away before the morning light . . . Which statement best describes the two themes developed in this passage?

The perfect statement that best describes the passage is "<span>Fortune ever fair Kissed him and with such a lecherous affection He lost his head before he was aware." Which means that the main character had taken advantage of his fortune, and the hardwork he put up into. He led a life filled with mindless decisions which led the down fall of his pride and his fortune. </span>
