In the tomb he says, “Stay not to question, for the watch is coming; come, go, good Juliet. I dare not stay longer. ”(5.3.158-159). Instead of staying with her, he was afraid of the consequence if he was caught there, so he fled and soon after he fled Juliet sacrificed herself to be with Romeo. If Friar Lawrence had stayed with Juliet and not have been scared over the consequence, Juliet could have
Hoping to end the feud between the Montagues and Capulets, Friar Laurence agreed to take these children into a marriage ceremony. When Romeo asks him to marry him and Juliet, the Friar tells him,“ In one respect I’ll thy assistant be; For this alliance may so happy prove, To turn your households’ rancour to pure love”(II.III.90-92). The Friar should never have married Romeo and Juliet because they were marrying at a young age. Thus, they are not capable of making major decisions on their own and without considering their consequences to their actions. Also he, should have known that Romeo was in love with Juliet 's appearance.
Father Lawrence suggests a potion to cause a deathlike trance and that it“ free thee from this present shame/ If no inconstant toy nor womanish fear/Abate thy valor in acting it” (4.1.120). Father Lawrence assumes that Juliet is a normal girl who does not have courage, yet Shakespeare contrasts traditional girls to Juliet’s fearlessness. By drinking the potion, she shows tenacity as she tries to protect Romeo from Tybalt’s ghost, saying, “Stay, Tybalt, Stay! Romeo, Romeo, Romeo!/ Here’s drink, I drink to thee”(4.3.58).
So one of the personification that I found in Romeo and Juliet was From love’s weak childish bow, she lives uncharmed. (Act 1, Scene 1, Page 11). The meaning of this personification was about Rosalina. Romeo says this to Benvolio while talking about love. Romeo says that she doesn’t want to fall in love and he says that she beautiful and has lovely eyes, but she is sadly a vrigin and vowed it.
Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name; Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, And I'll no longer be a Capulet’’. In this quote Juliet is trying to say to Romeo that forget about who you are, who you’re father is, and where do you belong. Or else, if he doesn’t change his name so she swear that she will stop being a Capulet. Juliet doesn’t care if she needs to leave her own family for Rome’s love.
Now there is much speculation as to whom the ultimate blame falls upon, whether it be the families for fighting for a reason they cannot recall, or Romeo's
Here one can also see the use of a rhetorical question. The author’s intention regarding this quote was probably for the audience to empathize with Juliet and understand her despair at the fate that called her to love a Montague. The audience then wonders if this perhaps has any regard to the star-crossed factor of their love which is mentioned in the prologue. Another rhetorical question is “What’s a Montague?”, an interesting question which demonstrates Juliet’s maturity as she disregards the
For instance, Juliet confesses to Romeo how she is, “…too fond, / And therefore thou mayst think my haviour light” (2.2.102-103). Juliet is aware that the speed at which she fell in love can be considered frivolous, which demonstrates how rushing love is not a mature decision. Juliet having to reassure Romeo that her love is valid implies that falling in love quickly is associated with false feelings. Moreover, Juliet offers her explanation of how she talked openly about her feelings without knowing Romeo was at her balcony, and she asks of Romeo not to, “impute this yielding to light love” (2.2.109).
So later that night right before she drank the potion she said “ how if, when I am laid into the tomb, I wake before the time that romeo come to redeem me? There’s fearful point! Shall I not then bestifled in the vault to whose foul mountan no healthsome cail breathes in, and there diestranders ere my romeo comes? Act 4 Scene 2. Their for the power of love it show that she does have concerns for it
Former French Military Leader, Napoleon I, outlined the basis of fate, a topic that many people cannot wrap their heads around. He once stated, “Our hour is marked and no one can claim a moment of life beyond what fate has predestined” Life is started by being born, and over by dying. We never know exactly when we are born or die. Even though these two import aspects of life are destined to happen, what occurs in between cannot change the outcome. Even important decisions that can change the present will not be able to change what will occur at the end.
(drinks the poison)...”(V. iii. 121-131). What Romeo fails to remember that he was in love with someone else prior to Juliet. He also believed she was the love of his life until he met Juliet. This proved that he could be happy again.
i came back to get my one and only true love i cannot live without her sir. Juliet- Me and friar Lawrence planned this. Me and Romeo cannot live without each other.
The move you are about to make will lead to an extremely unfortunate and terrible chain of events. Romeo, I understand that you are planning to return to Verona because you have heard of Juliet’s death. However, rushing back to Verona after hearing of the death of your beloved Juliet is an extremely poor decision. Romeo, there are several reasons why you should not go back to Verona. First of all, I want to let you know that I am a close friend with your father, Friar Lawrence and that I also am a friar myself.
This plan is for Juliet to drink a potion which simulates death so that she will be buried in the family tomb where Romeo can come and visit her. This plan works, Romeo is in the tomb waiting for Juliet to wake up, but someone is coming and Juliet hasn’t woke up yet, so Romeo drinks poison and dies.
Also, Friar Laurence never knew that the letter would not get to Romeo. Secondly, Friar Laurence was the one who married them in the first place. He knew that they were forbidden to get married. He thought that if he married them, the drama and fighting between their families would stop. Friar Laurence states ¨in one respect I´ll assist be; For this alliance may so happy prove to turn your households rancor to pure love¨(980)
