The lines in the above excerpt from act V of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet which creates dramatic irony are:

"Death, that hath suck'd the honey of thy breath,  

Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:  

Thou art not conquer'd; beauty's ensign yet  

Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,  

And death's pale flag is not advanced there."

An example of dramatic irony in Act V, Scene 3 of “Romeo and Juliet” is when Romeo thought Juliet was dead,  because of which he poisoned himself, but the audience knew she was alive. 

After knowing that Juliet had died Romeo wanted to enter the tomb in which Juliet laid dead desperately. When he discovers Paris he asks him to get away from the tomb, but he didn't leave the tomb. Paris and Romeo indulge themselves in a fight in which Paris is killed by Romeo. He takes Paris into Juliet's tomb and then drinks the poison. When Juliet awakes, she finds Romeo dead after which she too stabs herself with a dagger. This event was an example of Dramatic irony as the audience knew very well that Juliet is feigning her death but Romeo finds it to be the reality.

Answer: Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:  

Thou art not conquer'd; beauty's ensign yet  

Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,  

And death's pale flag is not advanced there.  

Explanation: Since Juliet is not dead Romeo says her lips are red and she is not pale so that is dramatically ironic because he doesn't know that she is alive and he will kill himself afterwards.

Answer: Nor

When to use neither and nor in a sentence?

A “nor” usually follows a “neither” when they're used in the same sentence (1). For example, you might say: I like neither hot dogs nor ketchup. You can also use “nor” if you're talking about more than two items, but you have to repeat “nor” after each element
