Answer: Juliet Threatens to stab herself in Friar's Cell- Act 4 Scene 2... mirrors that of Act 2 scene 5 in which Friar Lawrence advises Romeo to love moderately and not let love be toxic-ally intensified when he say's, " these violent delight have violent ends."
Explanation:
Shakespeare emphasizes the exhilaration that comes with love- specially first time love from two teenagers. The excitement and eagerness that is equally shared between Romeo and Juliet relationship is what makes the piece a full- blown romance. The long- lined pledges of affection and rumored actions - (climbing a ladder) further stretch the intimacy and affection of the characters. However it is this eagerness that ties in with the toxicity Friar mentions. The pair were so in love that they decided to shrug the already decades' long feud between their two families and date in secret. Within a few short days the pair eloped and were ready to pack their bags and leave their families, their home and their pasts. The two were so madly in love that they proclaimed they didn't want to live if they weren't in each other presences. That being said Juliet stating to Friar that if Romeo were to be banished from Verona, she would stab herself because she couldn't handle living without him even if it meant taking her life further makes Friars point. Love often times blinds- and how this story panned out it is safe to say two wore blindfolds.
