This quote belongs to Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe.  In this passage, Robinson Crusoe reflects upon his own doings.  He leaves his home against his parent's wishes who wanted him to pursue a career in law.  Crusoe was obsessed with traveling and seeing the world, so he decided to set sail from Kingston upon Hull on a sea voyage.  In the quote he thinks earnestly about what he had done, and how his parents felt, he feels he failed his duty to "God and his father".  He looks back upon his actions, accepting "the judgement of Heaven" for not obeying his parent's counsel.  This passage shows his religious ties to Christianity and a strong self consciousness which precedes maturity.

How is romeo’s affection or rosaline importantly characterizing his passionate nature?
Anna [14]

Answer: Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet develops the theme of love, which is introduced in the prologue. Romeo is portrayed as passionate, love-struck teenager who believes he is in love with Rosaline. However, Romeo’s feelings are described in a humorous way. Although Romeo’s feelings are intense, the audience is unsure how seriously he should be taken. His love seems immature and overemotional. For example, Romeo’s father, Montague, complains about his son:

Many a morning hath he there been seen, With tears augmenting the fresh morning dew. Adding to clouds more clouds with his deep sighs;

He acts like a young lover is expected to act. His poetry about Rosaline is flowery and full of exaggerates allusions. In this way, Romeo’s feelingsvare described as intense but not necessarily sincere. He appears to be in love with the idea of being in love, and Rosaline is an outlet for his strong emotions.

weeeeeb [17]
