or the world is broad and wide. 20 Romeo: There is no world without Verona walls, But purgatory, torture, hell itself. Hence banished is banish’d from the world, And world’s exile is death; then ‘banished,’ Is death mis-term’d.

Answer: The right answer is C) He expresses outrage about life without Juliet.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that in this scene from Act 3, which takes place in Friar Lawrence's cell, Romeo has been told that the Prince's punishment for having killed Tybalt will solely force him to leave Verona. He, nevertheless, is very disappointed and aggrieved, and considers that being banished from the city actually equals death, since he will have to live away from Juliet. Therefore, he bitterly concludes, calling death "banishment" is wrong, much like cutting his head off with a golden axe and laughing while doing so. Further down he will cite more reasons for his resentment, much to the Friar's desperation.
