Matt thought that Tam Lin acted without thought. He believed that his actions were idiotic. The second part of the question calls for your opinion.
“Tam Lin did what he wanted to do,” Celia said. “He was guilty of a terrible crime when he was young, and he could
never forgive himself for it. He believed this last act would make up for everything.”
“Well, it didn’t!” shouted Matt. “He was an idiot! A stupid, crotting idiot!”
He jumped up. Mr. Ortega tried to stop him, but Celia shook her head.
