Fate Quote?
“From forth the fatal loins of these two foes, a pair of star-crossed lovers take their life”,
“Star-crosses” suggests their relationship had been pre-determined,
Alliteration of “f” in “from forth” draws attention to the word “fatal”. This is a primacy affect and shows reader the importance of fate,
This quote is taken from the prologue.
Lord Capulets Limiting Power Quote?
Capulet: “What noise is this? Give me my long sword, ho!”,
Lady Capulet: “A crutch, a crutch! Why call you for a sword?”,
This is taken from Act 1, Scene 1, where the fight brakes out,
This shows how Lord Capulet is getting old,
Fighting is getting more common in Verona because of his limited power,
This quote could be used to show how although Capulet has power over Juliet, he is also weak.
Contrast Quote?
“So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows”,
“Snowy dove” is Juliet,
“Crows” are the other girls at the party.
Recognition Quote?
“This by his voice should be a Montague”,
Shows how Capulet recognises Romeo as a Montague, not by seeing him but by his accent,
This shows the difference in the two family’s.
Lips Quotes?
“This holy shrine, the gentle sun is this: my lips, two blushing pilgrims”,
Said by Romeo,
Refers to his lips as pilgrims,
He is saying he is in a holy shrine, worshiping Juliet’s lips,
However,
“And lips, O you. The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss. A dateless bargain to engrossing death”,
Romeo is no longer at a shrine, he’s in a burial chamber, looking at Juliet’s dead body,
The word “seal” suggests he is making a pact to die with Juliet,
Metaphors of lips contrast here.
Prologue?
“Two households, both alike in dignity”,
“Their parents rage”,
“Ancient grudge”.
