It forces readers to grapple with their own mortality.

Explanation:

Danse Macabre is about “dance of death” that was considered as a “dance” that everyone should know as everyone will die one day.

It is a Halloween story told to kids even today, in which the musical instruments play and dance.

It uses allegory to symbolize the power of death. Even in the excerpt we see Riya grappling with the obstacles on her way. The idea of the inevitable seeps in through these lines unconsciously.

In Capulet’s house, Juliet longs for night to fall so that Romeo will come to her “untalked of and unseen” (3.2.7). Suddenly the Nurse rushes in with news of the fight between Romeo and Tybalt. But the Nurse is so distraught, she stumbles over the words, making it sound as if Romeo is dead. Juliet assumes Romeo has killed himself, and she resigns to die herself. The Nurse then begins to moan about Tybalt’s death, and Juliet briefly fears that both Romeo and Tybalt are dead. When the story is at last straight and Juliet understands that Romeo has killed Tybalt and been sentenced to exile, she curses nature that it should put “the spirit of a fiend” in Romeo’s “sweet flesh”
