The story Pecos Bill exhibits the characteristics of a tall tale because the things that Pecos Bill and Sluefoot Sue did are more than what ordinary men can do. Bill dug up the Rio Grande to keep out a group of Mexican bandits from entering Texas. When Bill met Sluefoot Sue, she was riding on a giant catfish. Also, Sluefoot Sue was able to rope six steers with one throw of her lasso. When Bill and Sluefoot Sue had their first kiss, Bill was so excited he started shooting into the air and when he finished, there was only one star left in the sky. This is why Texas is known as the "Lone Star" state.

Explanation:
Although you did not present, we can consider, through the context of the question and the names of the characters, that you are referring to the play "A Midsummer Night's Dream" written by Shakespeare.
In this work, we meet the character Hermia who is in love with Lysander, who also loves her. However, Hermia's father has already arranged her wedding with Demetrius and does not accept that she wishes to marry another. To stop her from marrying Lysander, he goes to Theseus, the ruler of Athens, where the story takes place, so that he can convince Hermia to marry Demetrius. According to Hermia's father, there is a law in Athens that reinforces his right as a father. This law states that if Hermia does not obey her father, she must be murdered. Hermia's father believes that Theseus will convince her to marry, but Theseus gives Hermia the option of going to a convent.
