Romeo And Juliet Summative
Trevor Golden
'Tis The Feud
It is not the Parents fault, or fates fault that Romeo and Juliet are dead. Romeo and Juliet are dead because of Tybalt. Tybalt and Romeo were in the Courtyard area in Act III scene I and A friend of Romeo's had come out and had challenged Tybalt to a fight when He said "Draw Benvolio; bead down their weapons."(Shakespeare). Which meant Take out your Rapier (Sword) Benvolio, and Beat him down. The Friends name was Mercutio. Mercutio Died after he had challenged Tybalt to a Fight Tybalt had Stabbed Him under Romeo's Arm and No One believed that Mercutio Was Mortally wounded at first until they saw him drop even though he was saying things like, "I am Hurt" and, "No, 'tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church-door but 'tis enough,'twill serve."(Shakespeare). Therefore Mercutio Romeo's Friend was killed which made Romeo have more hatred of the Capulete Family.
Secondly, Romeo and Tybalt had a Fight themselves in Act III Scene II, When Tybalt Re Enters the Courtyard, Romeo and Tybalt Start to Fight Romeo Eventually Kills Tybalt as Tybalt Fails. After Tybalt was killed, The Prince Enters as Well as the Parents of the Capulet and Montague Families Their Brothers, and Sisters and many other citizens the Prince then asks, "Benvolio, who began this bloody fray?" Benvolio answered, "Tybalt, here slain, whom Romeo's Hand did slay;"(Shakespeare). After Benvolio said this The Prince Bannished Romeo from the City. After Romeo Was Bannished, Juliet was Going to be forced to marry Paris. Juliet went to Frier Laurence and asked him to help her she couldnt marry more than one and she only wanted to marry Romeo. Frier Laurence then Got a Sleeping potion that made her Basically Die. Juliet Took the sleeping potion and slept for 2 days.
