Act 3, Scene 3-5: A Final Plan

1-Prompt D
Friar Lawrence says, "There on the ground, with his own tears made drunk." This is where the nurse walks in and Friar Lawrence points out where Romeo is. I was interested by this quote since I had to think about what it meant. My guess is that Friar Lawrence means Romeo is very sad. The tears being drunk means that his tears have no control. It is similar to a person who drank too much alcohol and has nearly no control of themself. His tears having no control is like saying he is crying alot and he can't stop it.

2-Prompt C
Questions scene 4
Capulet- What is the point of saying "well, we are born to die"?
What is the difference of changing the marriage from wednesday to thursday?
Isn't it too forceful to offer a "desperate tender(bold offer)" of your child's love?
Lady Capulet-Why ask the day after Juliet is very sad? Isn't that sort of a bad idea?
Paris-Do you think you're trying to marry Juliet too soon after both her losses?
