Romeo and Juliet Act 3 Scene 3

1. Romeo laughs and says that being banished is much worse than death. I think this is reasonable because Romeo and Juliet are married and in love, and Romeo would reather die than be separated from Juliet. Lines 13-14. For exhile hath much more terror in his look. Much more than death. Do not say "banishment"
2. Romeo says that the dog, cat, and mouse live on Earth (which Romeo calls Heaven) with Juliet. And Romeo cannot because he is being exhiled. Lines 32-33. Live here in heaven and may look on her; But Romeo may not.
3. Philosophy and Sweet milk are alike because Philosophy take your mind off the bad things and concentrate on what you belive, and Sweet milk is so good that it makes you think about good things. I personally do not agree with Friar's philosophy because you cannot take your mind off the bad things for forever.
4. Friar says that Romeo should be greatful because the Prince didn't kill him, Romeo killed Tybalt, and Romeo has a pack of blessings when he leaves. Lines 138,139, and 141. But thou slewest Tybalt. There art thou happy. The law, that threat'ned death, becomes thy friend.
A pack of blessings light upon thy back.
