After the Nurse speaks with Romeo she hurries back to the Capulet house to inform Juliet of her lover’s idea and tells her, “Hie you to church. I must go another way/To fetch a ladder, by which you love/Must climb a bird’s nest soon when it is dark” (II.v.77-79). The Nurse demonstrates her devotion to Juliet as she expresses her desire to find “another way” (II.v.77) to help the young lovers spend their wedding night together and by doing so risks losing her job. She understands the true passion Romeo and Juliet have for each other and does everything she can to make them happy even if that means upsetting their families. This teaches the reader that helping those you love is more important than doing something that does not align with your own morals, like separating two star-crossed lovers because of a centuries-old family
When Juliet seeks guidance regarding her love for Romeo, the Nurse fails to provide sound counsel. Instead of encouraging
(2.4.168-173) The Nurse actually gave thought to Juliet’s well-being unlike the Friar, who remained ignorant to the dangers of Romeo and Juliet’s relationship. Following Romeo’s exile, the Nurse promised Juliet that she would seek him out to “... comfort [Juliet]. I wot well where he is. Hark ye, your Romeo will be here at night.
In the story Juliet’s caretaker,the nurse, they have a stronger bond than Juliet has with her own mother. Because of this Juliet is closer to the Nurse than her mother and the Nurse can influence her decisions because of their bond, the Nurse plays a key part in uniting Romeo and Juliet. One Way Juliet is closer to the Nurse is because the nurse raised Juliet ever since she was a baby “ And she was weaned—I never shall forget it, Of all the days of the year, upon that day. For I had then laid wormwood to my dug, Sitting in the sun under the dovehouse wall.
Juliet and the Nurse discuss the situation and the Nurse says, “Romeo is banished, and all the world to nothing That he
“Good Heart, and faith I will tell her as much/ Lord, Lord, she will be a joyful woman” (II.4.163-164). What the nurse means by that is she has a message from Romeo to give to Juliet ,and she knows Juliet will be excited to receive it. Juliet's nurse is agreeing with their young forsaken love, this is the nurse's first mistake. Keeping a secret from the enemy families is a lot of weight on her
After the news of Romeo being exiled is delivered to Juliet, Juliet breaks down. The nurse then tells Juliet she will “find Romeo/ to comfort [her]” (52). The nurse once again takes action to bring Romeo
As it states on page 166 “ I think it best you marry County Paris”. This proves that with the banishment of Romeo, Juliet's lover she would never want to remarry which foreshadows the death of Juliet. In conclusion, the nurse is responsible for the death of Romeo and Juliet by Keeping Secrets, and telling Juliet to Marry Paris.
She did not tell anyone that Romeo and Juliet were married. She should have told someone that they got married because they could have blamed her. The nurse helped her to get to Romeo. The Nurse would try anything to help Romeo and Juliet see each other. Their families hat each other with a passion.
The Nurse uses lot of slang words when she talks, her language is very unformed and colloquial. She did not know how to talk with the young Lady and how to adult. When she first comes in front of the audience, she proves her ignorance by her dirty flashback, which she recalls to prove her contribution over Juliet’s childhood. When Juliet got married to Romeo by the help of the Nurse, and they are going to meet secretly, the Nurse collects a ladder, so that he could climb by it. Saying that… When it was the time of Juliet’s marriage with Paris, one morning when she was sleeping; taking the medicine from Frier Laurence, Nelly was ordered to awake her from sleep, she started to speak a lot irrelevant topic about her future life with her new
The Nurse’s contradictory ideals, hastily brought upon her by the anger of the Capulets, only served to incite feelings of disbelief and distrust within Juliet. Shakespeare’s portrayal of Juliet and the Nurse’s contrasting ideals emphasizes Juliet’s rebellious and defiant manner occurring at the climax of the play, with this very manner determining Juliet’s fate as well. Hence, the Nurse's impetuous proposition merely progresses the tragic events which befell both Romeo and Juliet. All in all, the older generation (of mentors) exemplifies the catastrophic effects of impetuous decisions as
The Nurse helped out Juliet when her Parents could not. “As I told you my young lady bade me inquire you out; what she bade me say, I will keep to myself”(Act II.II.148-149). The Nurse has offered to keep the secret of the marriage between the two young ones and she will not tell anyone about it. After the Nursze comes back from visting Romeo she finds ways to not tell Juliet the good news instead she starts talking about other things, the Nurse also knows how delighted juliet will be once when she finds out about the wedding “Your love says, like an honest gentleman, and a courteous, and a kind,...where is your mother?”(Act II.II.55-57).

He steps towards the blaring lights; purples, greens, and blues. He barely notices the music as he gains his bearings in the unfamiliar ballroom. Of course it is unfamiliar to him, being a Capulet feast. His eyes search for Rosaline, the only thing on his mind. Mercutio shouts something unhearable and makes his way to the table of luxurious wines and liquors.
As her love for Romeo deepens, she starts to lose her composure. Her impatience is conspicuously shown during the scene where the Nurse returns to tell Juliet the news of her marriage to Romeo. Juliet asks the Nurse “How art thou out of breath when thou hast breath
The betrayal of the nurse by not staying loyal to Juliet in her most desperate time of need caused Juliet to lose faith in her and keep her thoughts a secret.” I think it's best you marry county oh he’s a lovely gentleman, Romeo’s a dishcloth to him”. Hence, instead of staying loyal to Juliet and helping her get out of a marriage the nurse goes against her and insults her husband, this act of disloyalty is what provokes Juliet to keep her plans a secret if the plans were not secret the death could have been avoided. To conclude throughout Shakespeare’s play “Romeo and Juliet”.
