Read Romeo's soliloquy from Act II, scene ii of Romeo
and Juliet.
The purpose of this soliloquy is to help the audience
understand Romeo's
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green,
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
O feelings for Juliet.
O feelings for Rosaline.
O description of the evening.
O description of Juliet's illness.
