Answer:

Compound sentence.

Explanation:

A compound sentence is a sentence that contains two or more independent clauses. Independent clauses are those words that can stand on their own as a full sentence and needs no dependent or other words to complete. Also, compound sentences using coordinating conjunctions to join the two independent clauses.

In the given sentence, there are two independent clauses separated by a semicolon.

Now, semicolons are used in place of conjunctions if the two sentences are related or close to each other. This means that we can replace conjunctions such as "like" or "and" in the sentence.

Likewise, the given sentence used the semicolon to connect the two independent clauses, making it a compound sentence.

The sentence cannot be a simple sentence as a simple sentence has only one subject and a verb.

And it cannot be a complex sentence as complex sentences contain an independent and dependent clause. And we have no dependent clause in the given sentence.

Thus, the correct answer is a compound sentence.

After Juliet's body is found, Lord Capulet says these lines from act IV of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet

Lapatulllka [165]

Death is my son-in-law, Death is my heir; My daughter he hath wedded: I will die, And leave him all; life, living, all is Death's. How is the excerpt an example of dramatic irony? Capulet does not know that his true son-in-law is Romeo. Capulet expresses his grief by personifying death. Capulet is insulting Paris who would have been his son-in-law. Capulet does not know that Juliet is actually alive.
