Romeo expresses this cautiousness to Mercutio and Benvolio in the following quote, "Nay, an there were two such, we should have none shortly for / one would kill the other Thou! why thou wilt quarrel with a man" (III.i.43).  However, Benvolio and Mercutio do not take this seriously enough and proceed with their plan of mocking the Capulets.]]> 2022-05-27 23:02:21 UTC https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202618214 pathriaz1 https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202620402 Mercutio's last few lines are mainly a fortune about the future, dramatic irony that the audience already knows. He repeats the line, "A plague o' both your houses!" (III.i.45). Translated to "Something will curse or tarnish your houses!" In my opinion, I believe the curse is Romeo and Juliet's deaths which will fill the families with guilt and compassion for each other. We were hinted their deaths in the prologue of this book.]]> 2022-05-27 23:09:12 UTC https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202620402 pathriaz1 https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202624494 Romeo wants to prove himself to Juliet, to be better than Paris, as he is uncertain if Paris' fortune and publicity outweighs his love for Juliet. "With Tybalt's slander - Tybalt, that an hour / hath been my kinsman" (III.i.46). Romeo thinks that the answer is killing Tybalt, making him look more heroic. Romeo says, "Thy beauty hath made me effeminate / And in my temper soften'd valour's steel" (III.i.46). ]]> 2022-05-27 23:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202624494 pathriaz1 https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202629057 The setting of this scene is a public place, citizens are likely gathering around Tybalt's body (slain by Romeo), some even watching Romeo and Tybalt's duel. As the Prince, members of the Capulets and Montagues, and Lady Capulet enter the scene Benvolio begins explaining the story, "Tybalt deaf to peace, but that he tilts / with a piercing steel at bold Mercutio's breast" (III.i.47). This is a possible occurrence where miscommunication could happen, but trustworthy Benvolio does not fail to deliver accurate news.]]> 2022-05-27 23:34:24 UTC https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202629057 pathriaz1 https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202631887 The Prince, one of few characters without a bias in Romeo and Juliet is adherent to both families' arguments at the crime scene. Lady Capulet argues, "Romeo slew Tybalt, Romeo must not live" (III.i.48). While Montague argues that Mercutio was Romeo's friend. All in all, the Prince banishes Romeo and if he is found, he lawfully can be killed.]]> 2022-05-27 23:41:43 UTC https://padlet.com/pathriaz1/aa2uqlruh0343vp4/wish/2202631887
