Romeo is an impulsive character who lets his emotions dictate his actions.

Early in the play, Romeo reacts emotionally to the news that his beloved Rosaline is going to a monastery as he speaks dramatically “O heavy lightness! serious vanity!”. But in just a few scenes later, he is excited again, and becomes instantly in love at first sight over Juliet “Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!”
“It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like  a rich jewel in an Ehiop’s ear–
Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear!”

Juliet hints at the end of the play without knowing it.

Hi Ocean,

You have a lot to do over the next couple of in class periods. My advice is to spend some time on this at home.

At the moment, there is not a lot for me to give feedback on.

Be sure to identify the device you will discuss in each paragraph, give a quotation from the text and explain how that example supports the communication of an idea about fate.

Ensure you have a clear introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion.

Mrs. P
