Question

Pyramus had left a little later than his Thisbe had, and he could see what surely were the tracks of a wild beast left clearly on deep dust. His face grew ashen. And when he had found the bloodstained shawl, he cried: 'Now this same night will see two lovers lose their lives.' —"Pyramus and Thisbe," Ovid Which statement best describes how the order of events heightens tension in this passage? If Pyramus had left at the same time as Thisbe, he might have seen that she was not killed by the lion. If the lioness had arrived later, she would have encountered Pyramus rather than Thisbe. If Pyramus had arrived earlier, he would have seen the lion attack Thisbe. If Pyramus and Thisbe had arrived at the same time, they would have encountered the lioness together.
