Writing about Beatrice's function in this section... 9-15
Beatrice is, in some ways, the female version of Alfieri because, like him, she can see what is happening to Eddie. However, instead of talking about what should happen, she does something about it. The relationship between Beatrice and Eddie is complex here. There are times when they are quite comfortable with one another, but there are times also when there is tension between them.
