"Typhoid Fever" & "The Highwayman"
In "Typhiod Fever" and "The Highwayman" they are similar in a lot of ways. In "Typhoid Fever" the two children are not allowed to talk becuase of thier diseases, and the landlords duaghter, Bess, was not allowed to talk to the highway man becuase of her father would not allow it just like the nuns and nurses who wouldn't let Frankie and Patricia talk. In the two stories they all fell in love. In "Typhoid Fever" Frankie started to fall in love with Patricia but they were not allowed to be together. In "The Highwayman" Bess fell in love with the highwayman.In both stories the girl dies,but in "Typhoid Fever" Frankie doesn't die, and in "The Highwayman" the man dies also. I think it was important for frankie to hear the end of "The Highwayman" because he felt like he could relate to the peom and he wanted to find out what happened because he thought he felt the same way about Patricia.
