Pun and foreshadowing-Mercutio

Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds, Toward Phoebus' lodging. Such a wagoner As Phaeton would whip you to the west And bring in cloudy night immediately. Spread thy close curtain, love-performing night, That runaways' eyes may wink, and Romeo Leap to these arms, untalked of and unseen. Lovers can see to do their amorous rites By their own beauties, or, if love be blind, It best agrees with night. Come, civil night, Thou sober-suited matron, all in black, And learn me how to lose a winning match Played for a pair of stainless maidenhoods. Hood my unmanned blood bating in my cheeks, With thy black mantle, till strange love, grow bold, Think true love acted simple modesty.

Shakespearean Sonnet Classical allusion, monologue, personification, metaphor-Juliet

Death lies on her like an untimely frost Upon the sweetest flower of all the field

Simile-Lord Capulet- means that Juliet was the best flower in the field and death is like an early frost.

In herbs, plants, stones, and their true qualities. For naught so vile that on the earth doth live But to the earth some special good doth give. Nor aught so good but, strained from that fair use Revolts from true birth, stumbling on abuse. Virtue itself turns vice, being misapplied, And vice sometime by action dignified.

Soliloquy and Foreshadowing antithesis, rhyming couplets- Friar Lawrence
