zvonat [6]3 years ago

This must be from a standardized test. The wording is a little confusing, but I'd say it is a metaphor. Google says the definition of metaphor is "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." This is saying something <em>is</em> something, or comparing two items without using "as" or "like". Have a good night/day!

-Dylan (AKA Animus)

At the end of the play, the prince says, “Some shall be pardoned and some shall be punished” for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet.
malfutka [58]
One of the people i think is responsible for the Deaths of Romeo and Juliet is Friar Lawrence. I think he is responsible for their deaths is because when Juliet came to him for a plan he though up a half full plan that wasn't fool proof. Another Reason I think he is responsible is that if his messenger got there in time Romeo would have known about the plan. But instead his messenger got caught up in a plague and disease. So he couldn't make it in time to tell Romeo of the plan. My last reason why I think Friar Lawrence is responsible because if he was there at the tomb in time he could have stopped Romeo from killing himself. And he shouldn't have left the tomb so Juliet could have the chance to kill herself.
