How does shakespear use figurative language to covey the grief felt by the capulets, paris, and the nurse

Answer:

To represent the suffering of the characters, Shakespeare uses the figures of similar language, personification and anaphor to create a figurative language that makes the mourning more intense and poetic.

Explanation:

Shakespeare wishes to reinforce the suffering that the Capulets, Paris and Nurse are feeling when they discover the death of Romeo and Juliet. However, he wants the text to portray this moment in a poetic, subjective and intense way and for this reason he uses figurative language.

We can see this when he uses the simile in the lines "Death lies on her like an untimely frost / Upon the sweetest flower of all the field." Shakeseare also uses Personification, putting death as someone, an enemy who stole Juliet from her family and uses anaphor, repeating the name of death as a way to reinforce her existence. This can be seen in the lines "Death, that hath ta'en her hence to make me wail, / Ties up my tongue, and will not let me speak" and "Death is my son-in-law, Death is my heir. "
