Paris is deeply affected for Romeo's having slain his beloved cousin. The strong need for a revenge takes control of his impulse to challenge Romeo to a duel. The character of Romeo is depicted as an eloquent young noble man who is fond of love and brotherhood with a high respect for friendship. However, he is well trained in the act of fighting. His fear for divine punishment is reflected in his words when he says: "Put not another sin upon my head." In addition to his pincely manners and dexterity with the sword, we can infer that he has strong religious beliefs.
A discourse [soliloquy] is when characters talk their contemplations so anyone might hear for the advantage of the group of onlookers. A case of discourse in Romeo and Juliet is the discourse that begins with "Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds" (Juliet, in Act 3, Scene 2).
