**How is fate evident in 5.3?**
“In faith, I will.-Let me peruse this face. Mercutio’s kinsman, noble County Paris!” (5.3.74-75)
 * Romeo kills a “man”, who turns out to be Paris

“Here’s to my love. O true apothecary, the drug are quick. Thus with a kiss I die” (5.3.119-120)
 * Romeo kills himself thinking Juliet is really dead

“Yea, noise? Then I’ll be brief. O, happy dagger, this is thy sheath. There rust, and let me die”(5.3.174-175)
 * Juliet wakes up and kills herself with a dagger when she sees Romeo dead

“Alas, my leige, my wife is dead tonight. Grief of my son’s exile hath stopped her breath” (5.3.218-219)
 * Lady Montague is dead due to grief for Romeo’s exile

“As rich shall Romeo’s by his lady’s lie, poor sacrifices of our enmity” (5.3.314-315)
 * Montague and Capulet finally ends the fight and realizes their faults after both of their childern is dead

"And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars" (5.3.111)

5.1 Romeo’s servant Balthasar come to Mantua to meet Romeo. He tells the news about Juliet’s death and Romeo becomes very depressed. He tells him to bring a horse, so he can leave as soon as he can. When the servant leaves, he calls in Apothecary and buys a poison from him and decides to die next to Juliet.

5.2 Friar Laurence asks Friar John if he delivered the letter to Romeo, who is in Mantua. However, he says that he couldn’t go. He explains that since he went into the house where the sick person lived, the guards didn’t allow him to go to Mantua. Hearing this, Friar Laurence is very worried and decides to keep Juliet in his cell until the letter gets to Romeo.


 * whether to drink the vial or not

Pros: Juliet can meet with Romeo and live together no one will tell her to merry Paris

Cons: Juliet might wake up before Romeo comes The vial might be dangerous to her body The vial might not work at all she doesn’t know when she will wake up

4.3 Juliet tells her mother and the nurse that she wants to be left alone. When they leave, Juliet is very nervous and fearful. She has a fear that she might die from the vial, but she drinks it. The scene ends when she falls on her bed. 4.4 The next morning, everyone is really busy. The old Capulet is in charge of organizing the wedding, so he tells his servants what to do. He orders the nurse to wake up Juliet and get ready, since Paris is already here. 4.5 When the nurse goes into Juliet’s room to wake her up, she realizes that she is dead. The Lady Capulet and the nurse tell this news to old Capulet. He sees her daughter dead and tells this news to Paris. Friar Laurence and Paris come to see Juliet. Everyone gets ready for Juliet’s funeral.

1. Classical allusions - " 'Tis but the pale reflex of Cynthia's brow." (3.5.20) 2. Classical allusions - " O Fortune, Fortune, all men call thee fickle." (3.5.60) 3. Metaphor - "Romeo's a dishclout to him. An eagle, madam," (3.5.232) I was very surprised to see how Capulet treated his daughter. He started insulting her because she was disobedient to him. I felt bad for Juliet, because Capulet just started yelling and using harsh language. "I'll to the Friar tp know his remedy. If all else fail, myself have power to die." (3.5.254-255) I think this quote is very important, because this is the beginning of the event that will happen soon. Juliet is going to the friar to get advice to get away not marrying to Paris. 1. Why doesn't the nurse tell the Capulet about Romeo? 2. Why does the Capulet uses harsh language to Juliet? 3. What is Lady Capulet's role in the house?
