Read the excerpt from Act III, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.
Romeo must leave because the sun is rising, and he cannot get caught with Juliet.
Juliet: O! now be gone; more light and light it grows.
Romeo: More light and light; more dark and dark our woes.
How does Shakespeare use the motif of light?
as a source of comfort
as a cause for strength
as a symbol of maturity
as a reason for sorrow
