What are the similarities and differences between ovid’s myth “pyramus and thisbe” with the play “pyramus and thisbe” enacted in shakespeare’s a midsummer night’s dream, act v, scene 1.

There context is the same. Pyramus and Thisbe are lovers whose families are in a feud with each other. They planned to elope and live happily ever after. However, on their designated meeting place, Thisbe arrived first, saw a lion and ran to hide leaving her cloak, which the lion mangled. Pyramus arrived and upon seeing the mangled cloak believed that the lion killed Thisbe. He then killed himself in grief. Thisbe came out of her hiding place and found Pyramus's corpse, she too killed herself. 

The only difference in both stories were the meeting between the lion and Thisbe.

In Ovid's version, Thisbe saw the lion first and she went to hide leaving her cloak behind. The lion saw the cloak and rent it to pieces.

In Shakespeare's version, the lion tattered the cloak first before Thisbe escaped from the lion. It infers as though there was a struggle between the two.
