HAMILTON

So in English and History for Junior year we are reading Hamilton. By far the best unit!!! In one of the songs during the play called Burn. Which is a very good song about Eliza (hamilton's wife) burning all of his letters to her because she found out he had an affair. One of the lines in the song was "You have married an Icarus. He has flown too close to the sun." We know what that line is referring to because we just read about Icarus. In the story, Icarus is given wings and his father warns him not to go to high or too low and stay in the middle course. Well, Icarus doesn't listen to his father. So in Hamilton, Hamilton doesn't listen and he basically ruins his life just like Icarus.
