In this paragraph, Juliet is oxymoronic and uses paradoxes to give expression and to show that she is conflicted. The first line, “O serpent heart, hid with a flowering face!” is revealing that Juliet is not very forgiving towards Romeo for killing her cousin and thinks that his bad character got masked by his good looks and charm. This first line doesn’t have an oxymoron in it however the point of it is to show the audience that Juliet’s first reaction towards the incident is not good. Lines two and four are where she begins to use oxymora and it states, “Beautiful tyrant! Fiend angelical!

Thy fault our law calls death, but the kind Prince, Taking thy part, hath rushed aside the law, And turned that black word "death" to "banishment." This is dear mercy, and thou seest it not.” (Shakespeare Act 3 Scene 3 Line 25) In conclusion, Friar Lawrence is a respectable character. He is a vital part of the play, Romeo and Juliet.

In the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare demonstrates that Friar Lawrence's tragic flaw is the effort to end the feud through his constant protection of Romeo and Juliet, his futile attempts to keep their marriage a secret, and his deep efforts to make everything turn out good.

Friar Lawrence provides misguided advice as a mentor, initiating the demise of Romeo and Juliet by encouraging their marriage. Romeo is sorrowful following his change of heart with Rosaline, which causes Friar to question Romeo and Juliet’s marriage due to his quick shift in relationships, but he encourages it anyways. This causes Friar Lawrence to think, “Holy Saint Francis, what a change is here! / Is Rosaline, whom thou didst love so dear, / So soon forsaken?” (II.iii.65-67).
Friar Laurence is bringing up Juliet, his love, to save Romeo from “slay thyself”. In addition, after Friar Laurence compares Romeo to a powder in an inexperienced soldier’s flask, Friar Laurence says, “What, rouse thee, man! Thy Juliet is alive, / For whose dear sake thou wast but lately dead” (3.3.141-142). Friar Laurence attempts to calm Romeo down by bringing up that “thy Juliet is alive”. Friar Laurence is aware that by bringing up who Romeo loves, Romeo will come to the realization that Romeo should not be crying over banishment.

In the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, he tells the story of two people who fall in love, Romeo, a Montague, and Juliet, a Capulet. Their families have been feuding for as long as they can remember, making their love for one another very dangerous. The two go to extreme lengths to be with each other, but this eventually results in both of them losing their lives. Throughout this story, Shakespeare conveys through his use of syntax and diction with wrathful tone that hatred can make people act irrationally loyal, and this hatred can cloud one’s morals. We first see Shakespeare demonstrate the dangers that come from fighting without proper reason in the very beginning between the characters Tybalt and Benvolio.
