There are lines here quoted from "The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus" written by Christopher Marlowe. I believe they are to be matched with their correct allusions from the given elements of Greek mythology.


1. Cut is the branch that might have grown full straight, And burned is Apollo's laurel bough, That sometime grew within this learned man.

THIS ALLUDES TO a symbol of fame and reward, belonging to the god of divination. Apollo's laurel bough is used to allude to the crown of laurel that was placed on victorious athletes in ancient Greece.


2. Swoll'n with cunning of a self-conceit, His waxen wings did mount above his reach, And melting heavens conspired his overthrow.

THIS ALLUDES TO Icarus and Daedalus. Icarus was the son of Daedalus, who made him artificial wings (using feathers and wax) and warned him never to fly too close to the sun. He violated the warning of his father, and his wings melted leading to his death. That's what was alluded to by the line above.


3. Her lips suck forth my soul: see, where it flies!-- Come, Helen, come, give me my soul again. Here will I dwell, for heaven is in these lips, And all is dross that is not Helena. I will be Paris, and for love of thee

THIS ALLUDES TO the Trojan war. This is line makes reference to Helen of Troy in Greek mythology. The Trojan war was fought over her.
