Welcome citizens of Verona, I thank you all for joining with us today to farewell our daughter, Juliet Capulet.

Supporting the Friar’s dismal assessment of Romeo is the Nurse. I will direct her to be the funny character in the scene, her face underlining how ridiculous Romeo appears, bawling like a woman on the floor. She even looks appalled as she asks Rome to stand up and be a man, instead of blubbering on the floor. Still, as the Nurse describes Juliet's misery, she would exude deep concern like a mother would. Her face depicts that if there is anyone who loves Juliet as much as Romeo, it is her for she is similar to a mother who cares only for her child's happiness and nothing
I was taking my usual late-night stroll through the gardens of Capulet, and I recalled my argument with Capulet which I had incited earlier that night. I have to admit, I was right in this argument whilst Capulet was acting immature and naive. The son of the archenemy of the Capulet family had snuck into the invite-only Capulet party!

Romeo and I are standing next to each other, Friar Laurence standing between us and nurse sitting down on the church seats. Nurse looks some what happy, she did want me to marry young. I feel happy and kind of guilty. I can't believe I snuck out. Even though I feel kind of guilty I’m glad I snuck out to marry Romeo.

Friar assists the lovers on numerous occasions and even marries them. Friar states after agreeing to marry Romeo and Juliet, “For this alliance may so happy prove/ To turn your households’ rancor to pure love” (Shakespeare.II.iii.91-92).
