 * Act 3 scene 1**

__Shop keeper’s perspective__

Hi Julianna !! Why did you not come to work today? I heard that you are down with a very bad cold..I hope you get better soon. Today, I have witnessed a very special, memorable event while I was working. The weather was very hot today, as you know, the hotter it is, the more customers visit our shop for drinks. It was when I turned around to get a cup for one of the customers, who accidently dropped the cup and broke. I saw two men, walking by our shop. They looked very familiar, they were Benvolio and Mercutio. You know that I love to overhear what others say don’t you? As usual I was keeping a close attention to their conversation. Benvolio wanted to come to our shop with Mercutio, he was persuading Mercutio by saying that he does not want to have a fight with the Capulets especially on a very hot day, when people get intense easily. Very soon, Tybalt approached to our shop with a group of people looking like his friends, offering to talk to either Benvolio or Mercutio. Benvolio and Mercutio looked like a house on fire.Mercutio refused to have a conversation with Tybalt and irritated him.They quarreled for a while and Romeo came from the other side of the street, towards the crowd,just in front of our shop. When Romeo was arrived, somehow he looked like not wanting to fight with Tybalt. I thought they are the feud...? Mercutio and Tybalt started to fight with the swords, and Romeo was trying to stop them fighting, and persuade Benvolio to stop quarreling. Suddenly, Tybalt stabbed Mercutio from under Romeo’s arm. Tybalt ran away and Benvolio took Mercutio. They must have gone to see the doctor. Very soon, Benvolio came back and announced that Mercutio passed away. Then Tybalt came back. Tybalt quarreled with Romeo and Tybalt succumb on the ground. As soon as the citizens came over, Romeo left too. Benvolio explained who killed who to the Prince.Old Montague, Capulet, and all of their wives came over and they seemed to be having a fretful time, talking to each other. I am glad that I can explain all of the things that I watched and heard today, it is such a good thing to remember all of the people’s name, who come to our shop just in case like today. Don’t you think so?? I really hope to see you soon ! Bye!

=Act3 scene 2= Nurse tells Juliet the death of Tybalt. Also, Tybalt is killed by Romeo, thus Romeo is banished. First when Nurse tells this news to Juliet she is shocked as she misinterpretes Romeo as killed. But once she realized what actually happened, Juliet is actually confused of whether the occasion is unfortunate, or fortunate. It is fortunate in a way that Romeo(her husband) is alive, but it is unfortunate in a way that, her cousin (Tybalt) was killed by Romeo, who she loves the most in the world currently.While Juliet’s parents are having a sorrowful time crying, Nurse tells Juliet that she know where Romeo is(hiding in the Friar Lawrence’s cell.), and promises to bring Romeo to her. Juliet hands over a ring to Nurse and asks Nurse to tell Romeo to come see her and say his last salutation. Romeo finds out the punishment that he will get. He is going to be banished. But he would rather choose death than being banished and being banished means death to him.Finally, Nurse arrives to Friar Lawrence’s cell and Rome gets to hear the news of Juliet that she is drunk just like Romeo is, and Romeo attempts to suicide but stopped by the Nurse. Friar Lawrence tells Romeo that he should go climb up to Juliet’s room and comfort her. The ring is given by Nurse, and he is left. = = = = =Act3 scene4=
 * Act 3 Scene 3**

Capulet, Lady Capulet and Paris plan on having Juliet married with Paris on coming thursday. Capulet promises to have Juliet get ready for the wedding. The wedding will have only few friends coming.

1.Juliet wants to hear what Romeo said to Nurse, but she does not tell her immediately. Finally, Nurse tells Juliet that Romeo will be waiting in Friar Lawrence's cell to marry Juliet.

2 Repetition: "Sweet Sweet Sweet" (2.5.57) Metaphor: "must clime a bird's nest soon when it is dark" (2.5.64) Rhyme: "I am the drudge and toil in your delight " (2.6.80) "But you shall bear the burden soon at night " (2.6.81)

3. For, the repetition of "Sweet Sweet Sweet" this emphasizes how much Juliet appreciates to the Nurse For, metaphor it creates stronger imagery. For, rhyme it make reading flow smoothly.

4.The most important line would be "There stays a husband to make you a wife." (2.6.74) this means Romeo is waiting for Juliet to come, to get married. This is the major thing that will lead all of the events that will happen in the future.

__hyperbole__ what ,wilt thou wash him from his grave with tears? (3.5.72)

__reversed sentence__ So fair an eye(3.5.233)

__Metaphor__ Romeo’s a dishclout to him. An eagle, madam,(3.5.232)

I was surprised about how Juliet's parents were forcing her harshly to marry with the Paris. Their words were harsh especially.They do not really care, or listen to what Juliet tells them.
 * What surprised you most about this scene?


 * What was the most important line in this scene? Quote it and explain.

Ancient damnation! O most wicked fiend! Is it more sin to wish me thus forsworn, Or to dispraise my lord with that same tongue Which she hath praised him with above compare So many thousand times? Go, counselor. Thou and my bosom henceforth shall be twain. I’ll to the friar to know his remedy. If all else fail, myself have power to die.

I think that this is the most important scene. This forshadows about the death of Juliet. If juliet is suicide, that will open up another conflict, problems, between the people around Juliet and lead the story to another direction.

-Does Nurse really wants Juliet to get married with Paris? -Why don't Juliet run away from her family instead of visiting Friar and willing to die when situation goes wrongly? -Does Romeo know that Juliet's parents are forcing her to get married with Paris?
