Ellie Moss West English 8A 19 April 2023 Act 5 Scene 3 Rewrite [Paris is taking flowers to Juliet's grave alone] Paris Juliet, how dare you leave me so soon. We had so many plans together! Oh curse you stars. You took away my true love. [Romeo is talking to Balthasar] Romeo Give me the ax and crowbar and take this letter. Be sure to deliver it to my father early in the morning. Give me the torch. And stay right here don’t follow me no matter what you see or hear. You must not interrupt me. And if you must know what I am doing I am going into the tomb partly to see her face and to take her ring. Now go! Balthasar I will go and not bother you, sir. [Romeo gives Balthasar money] Romeo In doing so, good friend take this. Live on and be prosperous. And farewell, good fellow. Balthasar …show more content…
And I doubt he will do what he said he would. [Romeo sees Paris crying at Juliet's tomb] Romeo You are like the mouth of an animal. You’ve eaten the sweetest thing in the world, my Juliet, and she has made you sick with her sweetness. Now I’m going to force your rotten jaw open so I can cram it with another victim. Paris Why you are the exiled Montague who murdered my Juliet's cousin and now everyone thinks that the grief of her cousin caused her to die. And here he is trying to desecrate the dead bodies. I’ll apprehend thee. Stop this unholy work, you horrid Montague. Are you trying to get vengeance on the Capulets beyond death? You villian! I will arrest you. Now go with me and you will die. Romeo I must indeed, and that’s what I came here to do. And don’t tempt someone as desperate to violence as me. Now go and leave me. Let your fear of these dead bodies spur you to go. I beg you don’t make me commit more sins. Paris I challenge your disgusting behavior, and I’m arresting you.
