Act 3 Scenes 1-2 Death Brings Shame, Grief, and Remorse

Prompt F
Romeo and Juliet's love is so strong that Juliet would ignore the murder of her cousin to mourn the exile of Romeo. Romeo killed Tybalt because he murdered Mercutio. When news of this got back to Juliet, she grieved over the loss of Tybalt for a moment, then began to cry over Romeo's banishment. She did not once blame or be mad at Romeo for murdering her cousin. This shows that they truly are in love if Juliet can forgive him for such a violent, terrible thing.

Prompt C
Mercutio: Are you more upset about your death, the fact that Tybalt killed you, or that you died because of the Montague-Capulet feud?
Romeo: Were you thinking of the repercussions when you committed the murder against Tybalt?
Tybalt: Why did you have to kill Mercutio?
Juliet: How were you able to forgive Romeo?
Nurse: Are you able to forgive Romeo for his actions because of his and Juliet's love?
