- Oh, Friar! I would rather sleep in a morgue very night covered in bones, with decaying limbs, and yellowing jawless skulls, or go into a fresh grave and hide myself with a dead man!
- Act 4, Scene 1.
- Tomorrow night make sure you are sleeping alone in your room without you r nurse nearby. Drink this vial of poison when your’e in bed. After you die I it, you will feel cold and your heart will stop bleeding. You will appear dead, but you will only be sleeping.
- Act 4, Scene 2.
- I went to speak to the Friar about my sin of opposing you and your will. He also instructed me to beg you on my knees to forgive me and beg your pardon. Oh, father! I beg you! Please forgive me.
- How are you my headstrong daughter? Where have you been wandering around?
- Act 4, Scene 3.
- Goodbye family, only god knows when we shall meet again. I feel such a thrill in my veins that it could freeze up my life’s warmth. Should I call back the nurse to comfort me? No, it must be done alone. What if the mixture does not work and I am alive for the wedding? No, that won’t happen, this knife will prevent it, lie there.
- In these lines, Juliet is speaking to Friar Lawrence about how she doesn’t want to get married to Lord Paris. She went far enough as to say that she would even kill herself just to escape that fate. Then, Friar Lawrence gives an idea. He said that he could give her a poison that will help fake her death, while giving her the appearance that she is dead. The poison will stop her heart from beating blood through out her body, and she will become cold to the touch. The potion is supposed to last 40 to about 42 hours (MAYBE!). The plan is when she is brought to the family vault, after about two days, Romeo and afriar Lawrence will be there waiting for her to wake up. Afterwards Romeo will take her to Mantua.
- Act 4, Scene 4.
- Nurse! Wife! Hey, I’m calling you! Go and wake up Juliet, also tell her to freshen up. Hurry up and be quick about it because the groom is here!
- In these lines, Juliet is just returning from her talk with Friar Lawrence. When Juliet enters her father says (MODERN ENGLISH) “ Hello, my headstrong daughter! Where have you been?” Juliet then says to him that she went to Friar Lawrence’s cell to beg for forgiveness for her ‘sins’ against her father. Juliet also says that Friar Lawrence told her to beg on her knees for Lord Capulets’s forgiveness. So, following the Friars ‘orders’, she begged for him to forgive her and that she will always follow his rules. However, Lord Capulet does not know the true extent of what had happened at his cell (LAST SCENE).
- Act 4, Scene 5.
- Curse the day, she’s dead, she’s dead, she’s dead!
- In these lines, Juliet is laying alone on her bed, holding Friar Lawrence’s ‘non-lethal poison’. As she was holding the bottle, she was thinking about if the bottle did not work, then she would have to be married. Juliet also thinks it might be lethal poison because the Friar (Lawrence) might be ashamed of marrying the same women twice. Just in case Friar Lawrence’s poison did not work, Juliet has a dagger with her. She has a dagger with her because (she said this in a previous scene) she said that she would rather kill her self than marry Lord Paris. I think that if Friar Lawrence did not give her this vial of non-lethal poison and think of that plane to reunite the two lovers, Juliet might have actually ended her life.
- Act 5, Scene 1.
- This scene is about the preparation of the wedding for Juliet and Lord Paris. In these particular lines, Lord Capulet is telling the Nurse or his wife to get Juliet ready for the wedding. Juliet’s nurse ends up fulfilling Lord Capulet’s request. As I began reading this scene, I was very intrigued because nobody knows that Juliet drank the poison.
- In this moment of the play, Lady Capulet, or Juliet’s mother, and Juliet’s nurse, find Juliet ‘dead’ on her bed. What they really don’t know is she is not dead (Friar Lawrence’s plan). In these lines of the play, Lady Capulet and Juliet’s nurse are shocked because Juliet is dead. The nurse and Lady Capulet are both crying and saying “curse the day! She’s dead, she’s dead, she’s dead!”. I think this is the most significant scene in the entire play because Friar Lawrence’s plan for Romeo and Juliet to reunite once again is starting to work.
- She’s dead, deceased, she’s dead. Curse the day!
- In these lines, Balthasar is informing Romeo of Juliet’s ‘death’. This scene isimportant in the play for two reasons: The first being the fact that Romeo just found out that Juliet has died, and he did not find out about the plan. The second thing is that he decides to ride back to Verona, where he will stay at the Capulet mausoleum, and kill himself in the building (this happens in later lines). Before he prepares to leave for Verona, he goes to an apothecary shop to by lethal medicines that will end his life. Romeo suicide plan is put to a halt because the apothecary tells him that is illegal to sell these toxic ‘remedies’, but he does have them. Romeo then convinces the man using his poverty-stricken appearance as a way to convince the apothecary to sell him the toxins. Romeo then takes the poison and begins on his journey.
- Do you have letters from Friar Lawrence for me? How is my wife, Juliet? How is my father? Again, I ask, how is Juliet? If if she is well then nothing else matters.
- Well, sir, she is doing well because no misfortune can touch her. Sir, your wife is dead. Her body now lies in the Capulet family mausoleum, and her soul with heavens angels. I was at her funeral, and immediately left to relay the message. I’m sorry I had to be the one to tell you this, but that is what I am assigned to do sir.
