The statement that best describes the difference between the excerpts is:
Only Shakespeare reveals a character’s doubts about his beloved.
In Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," Romeo explicitly expresses his despair and confusion about his love for Rosaline, indicating doubts about her feelings for him. In contrast, the excerpt from Ovid's "Pyramus and Thisbe" reflects a more straightforward situation involving a lack of communication without the characters expressing doubts.
