ACT V

SCENE I. Mantua. A street
Enter Romeo
ROMEO
If dreams are real, My dreams have some joyful news;
My heart full of love;
And all today an unaccustomed spirit
Lifts me up with cheerful thoughts.
I had a dream where my lady found me dead--
It was strange, gives a dead person time to think!
I came to life when kisses touched my lips, I was alive, and I was an emperor.
Ah me! How sweet love itself is, but when love’s shadows are so joyous!
Enter Balthasar, booted
News from Verona!--What is it Balthasar!
Do you bring a letter from the friar?
How is my lady? Is my father doing well?
How is Juliet? I ask again; nothing can be wrong as long as she is well.
BALTHASAR
She is well, nothing can be wrong:
She is sleeping in Capel’s monument, and …show more content…

Give me the torch: wear on your life, I command you, whatever you hear or see, stay away from me and do not interrupt my plan. When I descend into the tomb of death, partly to behold my wife’s face; but to take from her hand I must have a precious ring. I have an important purpose for that ring, so be on your way. But if you get curious and come back to spy on me I swear I will tear off all your limbs and spread them around the graveyard for all the hungry animals to eat.My plan is savage and wild. . I am more fierce in this attempt than a hungry tiger or the raging …show more content…

Retires ROMEO
You horrible mouth of death, you have eaten up the dearest person on earth, Thus I force your rotten jaws to open and I will feed you another body.
PARIS
It is the bastard Montague, the one who was banished. He is the one that murdered my love’s cousin Tybalt. They all think she died of grief for him. That guy has come to commit crimes against dead bodies. I’ll catch him.
Stop your evil work, vile Montague! Can you take revenge on dead bodies? Condemned villain, I’ve caught you. Obey and come with me. You must die.
ROMEO
I must indeed. That’s why I came here. Good and noble young man, don’t mess with someone who’s desperate. Get away and leave me here. Think about ones who have died. Let them put fear in their hearts. Please, young man, don’t make me angry. I don’t want to make another sin. Oh, leave me! I swear, I love you more than I love myself. For I’ve come here with weapons to use against myself. Don’t stay here, go away. Live, and from now on, say a madman mercifully told you to run away.
PARIS
I do resist

In William Shakespeare’s timeless play Romeo and Juliet, two star crossed lovers are faced with great adversity as they hide their romance from their feuding families. As author James Lane Allen once said, “Adversity does not build character, it reveals it”. Romeo, a Montague, struggles to hide his love for the Capulet daughter, Juliet, from his family and friends. The challenge of lying to his closest companions, and going against his family’s ways to secretly marry Juliet causes Romeo to act erratically and carelessly. Throughout Act 3 Scene One, Shakespeare exposes the lovestruck Romeo’s mercurial nature and impulsivity through his thoughtless actions.

Romeo’s hastiness throughout the play instils in him a fixed mind set which prevents the comprehension of the big picture, creating a disconnected society based on miscommunication. Romeo’s demonstration of his irrational behaviour is most exhibited when he says, “Wilt thou provoke me? Then have at thee boy” (5.3.70). In this instance, Romeo and Paris are confronting each other at the graves of Juliet and Tybalt. The

This possible assail on Romeo would then result in grave consequences since fighting is no longer allowed by the Prince of Verona. Another example is when Mercutio is later slain by Tybalt infuriating Romeo as he grows determined to avenge his friend; believing there is no other way to resolve the conflict as the “ black fate on moe days doth depend” on whether he will yield to his emotions. Romeo declares that Tybalt’s nefarious actions initiated “ woe others must end ” ( 3. 1. 112-113). As a result, Romeo, bereaved and exasperated, fights back against Tybalt. His emotionally driven actions lead him to murder Tybalt as such a deed would then stain his hands and image.
