The lines in the above excerpt from Act V of Shakespeare's “Romeo and Juliet” which reflect the conflict of person versus the unknown are:

“Of death, contagion, and unnatural sleep:

A greater power than we can contradict 

Hath thwarted our intents.”

When Juliet rises from her 'unnatural sleep' and asks Friar Laurence about her beloved Romeo she comes to know that Romeo had died after drinking the poison. Frair Laurence tells her that 'a greater power' which is death has shown its supremacy and had occurred.

The stretch that reflects the conflict of the person versus the unknown is  "Of death, contagion, and unnatural sleep:

A greater power than we can contradict  

Hath thwarted our intents."

In this passage Frei Laurence is explaining to Juliet that "a greater power" took the life of Romeo and that they can do nothing about it, because this greater power is more powerful than them.

And this is a perfect example of conflict between a person and the unknown, because until then the "greater power" which the friar was referring to was something unknown to them who are people.
