Write a brief paragraph explaining how Kindred and Cousin's commitment to Everyman changes throughout this excerpt and how that impacts Everyman's state of mind.

In the beginning of the excerpt, Kindred promises to be there for him. Cousin promises that he will be there for Everyman whether in life and in death. That he will be by his side during happiness or during troubles. As Everyman explains the journey to meet death, Kindred and Cousin, change their minds on going with Everyman, and start making excuses as to why they cannot go. Kindred offers his maid to Everyman. Cousin states that he would rather live on bread and water for five years than to go on the journey to death. Everyman reminds them the promises they made to him. They only say they will not go with him and go on their way, back to their lives of sin. They do not care that they did not fulfill their promises to Everyman. And even suggest they would like Everyman to return with them back to their world. Everyman feels forsaken and betrayed that Kindred and Cousin inability to keep their promise and accompany him on this important journey. He wonders if he should ever be happy that they have done this to him. When he needed them most, they abandoned him, which makes him lonely and unhappy.

What do we learn about human nature from Kindred and Cousin?

Kindred, which means related, represents Everyman's family; while Cousin represents family and perhaps close friends. They portray sin and immorality. Both love their sin and have no desire to follow Everyman in his journey, so much, that they make up excuses as to why they cannot come with Everyman. They make excuses in order to avoid fulfilling their promises. Kindred offers his maid to accompany Everyman instead of him. Meanwhile, Cousin tells Everyman he has a cramp in his toe. The point is, they weren't ready to be met by Death and be judged according to their sins. Therefore, they abandon Everyman and leave him to complete the journey himself. What we learn from their human nature is that individuals love sin and wickedness. And that humanity is at times, undependable.

Kindred and Cousin promise to stick by Everyman, live with him, and die with him.
