Our study of Romeo and Juliet continued with discussing and viewing Act II, Scene iii, iv and v.
Consider the following questions when studying these scenes.
1/ What has Friar Lawrence been gathering?
2/ Consider the lines, "Virtue itself turns vice, being misapplied:/ And vice sometime's by action dignified." Good things can be used for evil purposes and vice versa. How will this apply to Romeo's dilemma?
3/ When Friar Lawrence sees Romeo, what comment does he make about seeing him so early in the morning?
4/ Wht does Friar Lawrence mean when he says to Romeo, "Young men's love then lies not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes"?
5/ Why does the Friar agree to help Romeo and Juliet?
6/ According to Mercutio, what kind of man is Tybalt?
7/ How is Juliet to meet Romeo?
8/ How is the nurse behaving that is frustrating to Juliet?
9/ What is the purpose of the dialogue between Juliet and the nurse?
