Answer 1

Paris, in the play and the epic, dies at the hands of his enemy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Count Paris is one of the characters in the play Romeo and Juliet. He is considered to be the best suitor for Juliet by the Capulet.

The character of Count Paris was derived from the epic of Homer, Iliad, by Shakespeare. In the epic, Paris manages to woo the queen into marriage but Count Paris could not.

The similarity between both the characters is that they both die at the hand of their enemies.
