1. read 4.3-4.5

2. Focus on Juliet's soliloquy 4.3.15-60 by completing the following on a sheet of A4 paper: Her internal conflict is drinking the liquid or not. Pro: She will live happily with Romeo, and no one will know if she is dead or not except Romeo.
 * write a brief (2-3 sentence) plot summary of each scene (post to your R+J page)
 * What internal conflict is Juliet dealing with? (one sentence answer)
 * Create a brief pro/con list based on what Juliet says in the soliloquy. Pro: the reasons for taking the potion. Con: the reasons for not taking the potion.

Con: What if the letter doesn't go to Romeo? What if Romeo comes late?
 * This soliloquy is an excellent example of Shakespeare's use of imagery: draw a quick picture of the dominant image in the soliloquy and label it with five lines or phrases from the speech. Example: For "the bones / Of all my buried ancestors are packed" (4.3.41-42) might label a pile of bones in the tomb.

4.3 In this scene, Juliet asks the nurse that she wants to be alone. She was afraid that Romeo will not get the letter from Friar Lawrence, or if Romeo comes late, she might waken in the tomb and go mad with fear. Furthermore, Juliet sees Tybalt's ghost, who wants to kill Romeo and searching for him. And finally, she drinks the vail.

Romeo and Juliet, Act 3 scene 1. Tybalt’s POV When I was walking through the streets with my friends, I was in a fury about Romeo, who had joined the Capulet’s party and danced with Juliet. Moreover, when I saw Mercutio who was taunting and provoking me, my temper grew and I was about to fight him. However, all of sudden, Romeo appears and tried to stop the fight. At first, I turned my attention to Romeo and was going to kill him, but when he had fine reasons to have good relationship with me, I put aside my sword. Nevertheless, Mercutio couldn’t accept this situation and draws his sword. Therefore, he meets a tragic end during this fight.

Support #1 Lines: "star-crosses lovers" (prologue)
 * "Essay Pre Writing"** 

Explain how this textual evidence supports your answer.

Friar Lawrence was an originator, who marries the two “star-crosses lovers,” Romeo and Juliet.{1.0.6} He was hoping to terminate the feud between the Capulets and Montages by marrying the two lovers, but Romeo and Juliet had to sacrifice in consequences. Furthermore, even though Romeo and Juliet truly loved each other, they were too young to get married and not prepared. However, Friar Lawrence’s point of view was different. He only thought of stopping the feud between the families, and never thought that things will be wrong. When Romeo killed Tybalt, Friar Lawrence couldn't do anything for him, and had to make him leave Verona. If Friar Lawrence didn’t accepted their marriage, they would have easily abandoned each other, they didn’t had to meet the tragic death, and Juliet would of not drank the vile.

Support #2  Lines: “And this distilled liquor drink thou off when presently through all thy veins shall run soon a cold and drowsy humor.../ In the meantime, against thou shalt awake/ Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift/ And hither shall he come.”{4.1.100~4.1.120}

Explain how this textual evidence supports your answer.

It was Friar Lawrence’s idea that Juliet taking the vial in order to get her family disremember about her marriage to Paris. Moreover, Juliet wouldn’t be so desperate to call Friar Lawrence for help, if he didn’t accomplished the marriage between Romeo and Juliet. Friar Lawrence tells her “And this distilled liquor drink thou off when presently through all thy veins shall run soon a cold and drowsy humor.../ In the meantime, against thou shalt awake/ Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift/ And hither shall he come.”{4.1.100~4.1.120} Because of this passage, Juliet was relieved and and actually ends up suiciding herself next to Romeo, who was already dead due to the miscommunication with Friar Lawrence.

Support #3 Lines: "Come, go, good Juliet! I dare no longer stay!”{5.3.164} Romeo unawarely arrives at the tomb of Juliet and trusts Juliet’s death due to the miscommunication with Friar Lawrence. As a result, Romeo kills himself. Juliet finds out about the death of Romeo after she wakes up and kills herself after Friar Lawrence left. Friar Lawrence runs away when he hears the guards coming. “Come, go, good Juliet! I dare no longer stay!”{5.3.164} His cowardice caused the death of Juliet. If he didn’t had any miscommunication with Romeo, Romeo and Juliet would have met each other and lived happily after.
