Friar's monologue paragraph

Shakespeare uses the Friar’s monologue to show that good and evil coexist. In lines 21 and 22 the Friar says Virtue if self turns vice, being misapplied, And vice sometime by action dignified. This means that too much good can become bad. This also says that too much of a bad thing can also be a good thing. In line 23 the Friar says Poison hath residence and medicine power. This means that poison can be an extremely bad thing, but with the right dosage it can be helpful. I think he says this because he gave the potion to Juliet in order to make her sick but not to make her die. When doctors prescribe antibiotics, the antibiotics are actually poison used to kill the disease you have. In line 28 the Friar says In man as well as herbs—grace and rude will. He is saying that there is good in evil in every human being as well as in plants. This means that the person has to choose which one he wants to be.

Romeo and Juliet Act 5 Scene 3

1. Romeo is saying that Juliet is still beautiful even though she is "dead", and that death has not taken away her beauty. The irony of this is that Juliet is not dead.
2. Romeo says that death is amorous which means that death is full of love. Line 103: That unsubstantial Death is amorous.
3. The Friar is trying to convince Juliet to leave with him because he doesn't want Juliet to see Romeo. Line 159: Come, go, good Juliet. I dare stay no longer.
4. Juliet stabs herself with Romeo's dagger. We know this because in lines 169-170 she says Yea nosie? Then I'll be brief. O happy dagger. This is thy sheath; there rust, and let me die. After this in parentheses it says she stabs herself and falls.
5. The prince says that he still respects the Friar for a holy man. Line 270: We still have known thee for a holy man.

Romeo and Juliet Act 4

In Act 4 of "Romeo and Juliet" Juliet reveals herself to be a frightened character. In line 15 of Act 4 Scene 3, Juliet says I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins. This shows that she is scared of taking the potion. If the potion doesn't work then she could die or even worse, marry Paris. In line 17 of Act 4 Scene 3, Juliet thinks about calling her mother and the nurse back into her room because she is so scared. This shows that she really is scared because if she calls them back into the room, they could find the potion. Juliet's mother could also make Juliet be watched through the night because of her strange behavior. This would result in Juliet not being able to drink the potion. In line 37 of Act 4 Scene 3, Juliet is scared of the horrible conceit of death and night. This means she is afraid of dying at night, and Romeo will be lonely if she dies. When you have thoughts about death, you often times think of more scary things. Juliet starts to think all about her dead family members including Tybalt.
