the idea for the American Constitution? The rights

are held sacred, were not always guaranteed for
all citizens. Many were deprived of life, liberty,
and the right to own property. Others were denied

England in 1215. It was the document that changed

symbolism is found in the conviction and lonely
death of Fagin. Here the reader is reminded that
the wealthy are only a trial away from ending up
in the dirt themselves, and in fact are already
dirty with guilt. Therefore, Fagin represents the
unfeeling system that dances and jokes around the
misery of others. He also represents the
underworld itself. This is the opposite of power
