In Scene V, Faustus starts to think about God and how he did at one time love him but now all he wants is the wealth and honor which the evil angel convinced him would be better. It is funny how someone can change their entire lifestyle because they are envious of what others around them have. They start to do everything possible in achieving their power and wealth. After Faustus gives his soul to the devil he wants to know where hell is, why? I do not understand why he would want to know where it is considering he is going to be going there once his contract has ended with the Devil. I think Faustus is starting to enjoy his new powers and authority to much he says that he will be as great as Lucifer and now he wants a wife because no one can live with out a great wife. When Meph does not bring him what he wants I believe he starts to realize that just because he has dark magic it may not give him the luxurious items he wanted before.
Faustus is just constantly wanting more for his life and he isn't completely satisfied with the things Meph is bringing him. I feel is this foreshadowing the events to come.
