The feud did it!!!
Romeo and Juliet.
Some people believe that Tybalt's to blame for the death of Romeo and Juliet, however some people think that the feud is to blame.
Romeo is a Montague and Juliet is a Capulet, which means they can’t be together. The feud is keeping them apart and they couldn't stand being apart.
(Act: II Scene:II ) The text says, “ My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself because it is an enemy to thee”
There name is what is keeping them apart. And they hate how they can’t be together because of the feud.
Knowing that they could never see each other was just beginning to be too much for the both of them, they could not stand not seeing each other, so juliet tried to fake her death but Romeo thought she was really dead so he killed himself because he didn’t want to live without her.
(Act: IV Scene: I) The text states, “ Shall, stiff and stark and cold, appear like death; and in this borrow’d likeness of shrunk death. Thou shalt continue two and forty hours. “
The potion that Friar Laurence gave juliet would make it seem like she dead, and when Romeo comes to find her they can run away together.
