Thus, the Prince of Verona is saying: This morning brings a sad and gloomy kind of quietness for all of us. Here is a demonstration of iambic pentameter in this line:. Note the pattern of one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable.

The image is one of a cloudy, overcast morning. The sun is hidden behind the clouds. One can picture all the families and townspeople gathered by the stone monument in the graveyard, under a gloomy, clouded sky.
Romeo and Juliet are both dead, and the sun itself is also sad for all the events that have occurred. Even the sun has sorrow for the young couple who died tragically. A demonstration of iambic pentameter in this line:. Notice that there are 10 syllables in the entire line, divided into five pairs. Prince Escalus tells everyone to leave the graveyard now. They are to "go hence"-- meaning go out from here, probably back to their homes. He says that there will be more talk about these events.
It is not entirely clear whether the townspeople should talk amongst themselves, or whether the Escalus will talk with each of them to determine justice. The next line implies that there will be some conversations to determine who is really responsible. This is a good and easy example because every word in this line is a different syllable. That makes it much easier to look at the meter of the line.
Meaning: Some of the people involved with be forgiven, and some of the people will be punished by the law. There are many characters who could be implicated in the deaths of Romeo and Juliet.
Friar Laurence has already made his confession and been pardoned by the Prince of Verona. Which with sweet water nightly I will dew,. Or, wanting that, with tears distilled by moans.
The obsequies that I for thee will keep. Nightly shall be to strew thy grave and weep. The boy gives warning something doth approach. What cursed foot wanders this way tonight,. To cross my obsequies and true love's rite? What, with a torch! Muffle me, night, a while. Give me that mattock and the wrenching iron. Hold , take this letter. Early in the morning. See thou deliver it to my lord and father. Give me the light. Upon thy life I charge thee,.
Whate'er thou hearest or seest, stand all aloof. And do not interrupt me in my course. Why I descend into this bed of death. Is partly to behold my lady's face,. But chiefly to take thence from her dead finger. A precious ring, a ring that I must use. In dear employment. Therefore hence , be gone. But if thou, jealous , dost return to pry.
In what I further shall intend to do,. By heaven, I will tear thee joint by joint,. And strew this hungry churchyard with thy limbs. The time and my intents are savage-wild,. More fierce and more inexorable far. Than empty tigers or the roaring sea. I will be gone, sir, and not trouble you. So shalt thou show me friendship. Take thou that. Live, and be prosperous.
His looks I fear, and his intents I doubt. Thou detestable maw , thou womb of death,. Gorged with the dearest morsel of the earth,. Thus I enforce thy rotten jaws to open,. And in despite I'll cram thee with more food! This is that banished haughty Montague,. That murdered my love's cousin, with which grief.
It is supposed the fair creature died;. And here is come to do some villainous shame. To the dead bodies. I will apprehend him. Stop thy unhallowed toil, vile Montague!
Can vengeance be pursued further than death? Condemned villain, I do apprehend thee. Obey and go with me, for thou must die. I must indeed, and therefore came I hither. Good gentle youth, tempt not a desperate man. Fly hence and leave me. Think upon these gone;. Let them affright thee. I beseech thee, youth,. Put not another sin upon my head. By urging me to fury. O, be gone! By heaven, I love thee better than myself,.
For I come hither armed against myself. Stay not, be gone; live, and hereafter say. A madman's mercy bid thee run away. I do defy thy conjurations ,. And apprehend thee for a felon here. Wilt thou provoke me? Then have at thee, boy! O Lord, they fight! I will go call the watch. O, I am slain! If thou be merciful,. Open the tomb, lay me with Juliet. In faith, I will. Let me peruse this face —. Mercutio's kinsman, noble County Paris! What said my man when my betossed soul.
Did not attend him as we rode? I think. He told me Paris should have married Juliet. Said he not so, or did I dream it so? Or am I mad, hearing him talk of Juliet,. To think it was so? O, give me thy hand,. One writ with me in sour misfortune's book! I'll bury thee in a triumphant grave. A grave — O no, a lantern, slaughtered youth,. For here lies Juliet, and her beauty makes. This vault a feasting presence full of light. Death, lie thou there, by a dead man interred.
How oft when men are at the point of death. Have they been merry, which their keepers call. A lightning before death. O, how may I. Call this a lightning? O my love, my wife,. Death, that hath sucked the honey of thy breath,. Join Goodreads. Share this quote:.
