"If we wish to be free-if we mean to preserve", "if we mean not basely to abandon" AND "which we have been so long contending", "which we have been so long engaged", "which we have pledged".
Parallelism is the repetition of the same grammatical structure. There are two instances of parallel structure in this excerpt. The first is the "If we ___ to ___" structure. The second is the "which we have _______" structure. By filling the passage with this parallel structure is gives the sense of a list of reasons that all, compounding on top of one another, logically lead to the need to fight. The change from the parallel structures in the last line "we must fight!" makes this exclamation stand out and hold power.
In scene 4, lines 1-30, Capulet tries to get Juliet to marry Paris. Capulet decorates the wedding to where it would be perfect. He wants Juliet to marry Paris because he was very wealthy and he had great fame.
<span>Capulet had given Juliet her freedom as a child and he wanted her to </span>hurry<span> up and marry Paris before she got too old. </span>
<span>The audience, Friar and the nurse were the only people who knew about Romeo and Juliets marriage. Romeo and Juliet fell in love and they knew that they shouldnt be able to get married. This makes it a dramatic irony because Juliet is already married to Romeo.</span>
