Lady Or The Tiger?

"The Lady or the Tiger?"
In the story, "The Lady or the Tiger?" We read about the actions of both a king and his daughter. The King was semi-barbaric and held these events which he thought would grant justice.

"But upon that hot blooded, semi-barbaric princess, her soul at a white heat beneath the combine fires of despair and jealousy"(Stockton 4). This citation implies she's internally conflicting with herself about what to do. If she were in love and cared about more then herself she would have decided immediately to save his
