This opening speech by the Chorus serves as an introduction to Romeo and Juliet. We are provided with information about where the play takes place, and given some background information about its principal characters.
The obvious function of the Prologue as introduction to the Verona of Romeo and Juliet can obscure its deeper, more important function. The Prologue does not merely set the scene of Romeo and Juliet, it tells the audience exactly what is going to happen in the play. The Prologue refers to an ill-fated couple with its use of the word “star-crossed,” which means, literally, against the stars. Stars were thought to control people’s destinies. But the Prologue itself creates this sense of fate by providing the audience with the knowledge that Romeo and Juliet will die even before the play has begun. The audience therefore watches the play with the expectation that it must fulfill the terms set in the Prologue. The structure of the play itself is the fate from which Romeo and Juliet cannot escape.
“JOHN BROWN in Kansas settled, like a steadfast Yankee farmer,Brave and godly, with four sons—all stalwart men of might.There he spoke aloud for Freedom, and the Border strife grew warmerTill the Rangers fired his dwelling, in his absence, in the night; And Old Brown, Osawatomie Brown,Came homeward in the morning to find his house burned down.
Then he grasped his trusty rifle, and boldly fought for Freedom;Smote from border unto border the fierce invading band:And he and his brave boys vowed—so might Heaven help and speed ’em—They would save those grand old prairies from the curse that blights the land; And Old Brown, Osawatomie Brown,Said, ‘Boys, the Lord will aid us!’ and he shoved his ramrod down.” Actually, it would be wise of you to proofread it properly. I have found all this online. No idea, if it is correct. Or you could get it edited by the professional writing service as Prime Writing. They can do that fast and at an affordable price

Answer:
A. Black Plague
Explanation:
The Black Plague was a devastating epidemic that took place from around 1347 to 1351. The plague was extremely deadly, and it killed an estimated 75 to 200 million people in Europe and Asia. Medieval literature, art and culture was extremely influenced by this catastrophe. As Chaucer wrote <em>The Canterbury Tales</em> during this time period, it is likely that this historical event influenced the story choices of the monk.
I feel it is a horrid thing and absolutely messed up. It should never ever have been used or addressed as something allowed to happen. Also it was very racist obviously. It shouldn't happen ever again.
