Sir Thomas -
Thomas prefers Maude Clare to Nell
He is troubled by Maude Clare being there
He has a caring mother
He wants to fight back but "falters"
Ashamed, remorseful - he knows he has done Maude Clare wrong
Uses Maude Clare's full name - formal address term
He tries to say something but can't find the words
He is overpowered by the women
Always "My lord" - Powerful and superior
High Status, birth, good catch
Married for possessions
Nell -
Doesn't talk until the end
Finally finds strength to fight
Self confident (or at least acts confident)
Last lines are maybe to convince Maude Clare, maybe to convince herself
You feel sympathy for her
Maude Clare -
Prettier and more intelligent than Nell
Given regal air
Brave to go to wedding
First and last person mentioned
Narrator -
In awe of Maude Clare
