The mirror in the play has a definite judgement about the beauty. The starting point of the tale is that the mirror does not lie, always tells the truth, and when necessary can be perceived as the foundation for any decision.. As examined here, the notion of mirror is identified with how seeing oneself can be painful. Through such identification, the mirror becomes a practical metaphor.
