Romeo’s servant then telling Romeo that Juliet has passed away, he was deeply upset. Romeo then goes back into Verona and the first thing he does is got buy poison from an Apothecary. He then writes a suicide note talking about his tragic events he went

life falls apart. Romeo realizes he must run and leave juliet, that his best friend is dead, and he is to be killed for murder, or so he thought. 8- Juliet learns of tybalt 's death A confused Juliet over a terrible incident. Unsure of what has truly happened she questions, “I s Romeo slaughtered and is Tybalt dead? My dearest cousin and my dearer lord?” (Shakespeare 3.2.71-72) This quote if asking is romeo and tybalt dead and her way of expressing how she loved them both so very much.

However, the Friar was immature and married them anyways. Then, Friar came up with the idea for Juliet to fake death. Juliet is distressed about Romeo being banished so Friar comes up with the plan saying, "Hold, then. Go home, be merry, give consent/ to marry Paris. Wednesday is tomorrow,” Juliet is then suppose to "Take thou this vial, being then in bed/ And this distilling liquor drink thou off."

It killed Romeo and almost Juliet. “And here he writes that he did buy a poison of an apothecary and therewithal came to this vault to die and die with Juliet.” (304-307) Romeo decided to drink the poison because he thought that Juliet was dead. Little did he know, she was alive the entire time. “At several parts, Juliet is imagined as death’s bride and just before she drinks the potion, she fantasizes about lying in the Capulet tomb surrounded by the rotting corpses of her ancestors.” (Gibson 31) Juliet is foreshadowing that she will drink the poison and eventually are later in the story. She dies because Romeo is dead.

They have only been seeing each other for a little while and they both decide to get married. Romeo then gets banished for killing Juliet’s cuisine Tybalt. Juliet takes a poisonous potion that Friar Lawrence has made, to make her seem dead so that she doesn’t have to marry Count Paris. Balthasar (Romeo’s servant) tells Romeo that Juliet’s dead, and Romeo decides to by some deadly potion from a chemist in Mantua. He is going to Juliet’s tomb, back to his home town, even under the risk of been banished.

He went to a near by city, and when he heard the news that Juliet had died he could not bear it. He made a hasty decision to buy poison. Even when he kissed Juliet and her lips were warm he was so crazed that he didn't realize that she was alive. If Romeo hadn't been so rash, I believe that he and Juliet would have lived. If you really think about it, Romeo actually played a role in Juliet's death.

Juliet agrees, drinks the portion and apparently die, and the Friar sends a messenger to inform Romeo, but the messenger fail to reach Romeo, and instead a friend of Romeo reaches him and tells him that Juliet is dead because he didn't knew that Juliet is only apparently dead because of the potion. Romeo buys a poison, comes back to Verona and enters Juliet tomb. He kisses her, and suicide. A little after, Juliet wake up, find her Romeo dead, and use Romeo's dagger to suicide. Romeo and Capulet arrive at the tomb, and decide to stop the fighting between the families.

The star-cr... ... middle of paper ... ...omeo and Juliet’s romance is constantly reminding the reader that it was no ones fault but fate itself. In conclusion, even though the reader can make a compelling argument that every character in Romeo and Juliet is responsible for the young lovers deaths, Shakespeare tells the reader that the relationship would never work out, completely based on fate. He reminds the reader in the prologue, before Romeo and Juliet even meet each other and the moments before and after their secret marriage. Even when they are dying, the reader is reminded that fate has everything to do with why the story has gone so terribly awry. The love of Romeo and Juliet did not fail because of their mistakes or the mistakes of others but rather the fate that was in store for them right from birth.

Friar Laurence promises to send word to Romeo to meet her when the potion wears off and to take her to Mantua (where Romeo is residing, after being banished from Verona). Unfortunately, Romeo does not receive this message on time and upon hearing of her death, he goes to Juliet's empty tomb where he drinks poison and dies. When Juliet's potion wears off, she awakens to find her lover's corpse... ... middle of paper ... .... If Romeo hadn't gone to the party, he would never have met Juliet who would have been married off to Paris. In this case, the story would not have taken place.

The Responsible Character Behind the Tragic Deaths of Romeo and Juliet In writing Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare has created a play involving the complex entanglement of all of the citizens of Verona in the tragic demise that befell the young lovers. The appeal of the play is Shakespeare's masterful stagecraft, because the audience are told of the tragic ending at the beginning of the play, but want to know how they are driven to their deaths. By involving everyone, the audience is left guessing until the end. Even characters that feature very briefly or seem insignificant have important roles - one example is Friar John, the messenger who was to take the letter detailing Friar Lawrence's plot to Romeo, but who was held back by the threat of plague. His inability to get to Mantua meant that Romeo believed that Juliet was dead, and subsequently took his own life.
