Hello, for the three omens for fortelling Alonso's death I have so far Act 2 P. 113 line 75 Where Alonso says" Tello, a love that's true ignores, the greatest danger. It is my fate that I should have a rival. Is that good, i couldn't find anymore in act two and then in act three i have for the omen page 150 where Alonso says And so I go, half dead and yet half alive. What can I say to leave, my foot already in the stirrup. Then third omen act one p. 87 Alonso says" Worship today, and die tomorrow" How are those 3 for omens, all the professor is looking for is the omen and who says it. Thanks
It would help a lot if you told us what play you are talking about. Is it "El Caballero de Olmedo" by Lope de Vega?
If so, see

sorry its Knight of Olmedo
What a wonderful site drwls gave you! Actually it's the same play: El Caballero de Olmedo (Spanish) and The Knight of Olmedo. Don't miss Dr. Friedman's remarks. Did you read the posts of yesterday and this morning I did for you? You mean I didn't have to reread it AGAIN and actually think?!!
Yes, these look good. To my way there are many omens = referring to the posts I already gave you.

The three lines you have identified can be interpreted as omens for fortelling Alonso's death. Here's a breakdown of each omen and who says it:
1. Omen in Act 2, Page 113, Line 75 - Alonso says, "Tello, a love that's true ignores the greatest danger. It is my fate that I should have a rival."
This line suggests that Alonso believes having a rival is a sign of danger, possibly foreshadowing a threatening situation that could lead to his death.
2. Omen in Act 3, Page 150 - Alonso says, "And so I go, half dead and yet half alive. What can I say to leave, my foot already in the stirrup."
Here, Alonso expresses himself as being both alive and half dead, implying an impending mortal danger and a sense of helplessness.
3. Omen in Act 1, Page 87 - Alonso says, "Worship today, and die tomorrow."
This line implies that death may come unexpectedly even to those who are currently in a position of reverence or power, like Alonso.
These lines serve as potential omens in the play, suggesting a foreshadowing of Alonso's death. It's important to note that the interpretation of omens can vary based on individual perspectives and the context of the play.
