Mercutio And Tybalt Monologue

Tybalt is a very vengeful character. When tybalt and Mercutio fight, Mercutio gets stabbed and dies which will cause Romeo go crazy. “Why the devil come you between us? I was hurt under your arm.”(3.1.70) with these words, Romeo feels guilty about his best friend's death, that was mainly caused because Romeo denied fighting Tybalt.

Tybalt, with anger for Romeo, threatens him and urges him to fight. Being blind of hatred, Tybalt fights Mercutio who is defending his friend Romeo. What is believed to end the fight only makes it worse, ending with Tybalts sword in Mercutios gut. Unfortunately this incident was intended for Romeo. (Closing sentence)

Good mercutio!” Tybalt under romeo's arm thrusts mercutio with his sword and now he’s injured because romeo got in the way. Romeo should have never went back for tybalt it was his own fault anyways that mercutio was dead but apparently he

Will you pluck your sword out of his pitcher by the ears? make haste, lest mine be about your ears ere it be out."(Romeo and Juliet ACT 3 Part 2)When Tybalt agreed to fight with Mercutio instead they move closer to eachother and began to fight.Romeo jumps in to stop them from fighting stating beat down their weapons.--Gentlemen, for shame! forbear this outrage!-- Tybalt,--Mercutio,--the prince expressly hath or bid this bandying in Verona streets.-- hold Tybalt!--good Mercutio!--"(Romeo and Juliet part 3)in that case Marcutio was already Stabbed and hurt by Tybalt as he ran away with his other mens.Benvolio and Romeo tried to help him and all Mercuitio was saying was that it was only a scratch.As Romeo encourage's Mercutio to stay alive he says"Courage, man; the hurt cannot be much"(Romeo and Juliet Act 1 Part 3)mercutio was explaining how he ended up getting stabbed and he was was stabbed under Romeo' arm and how he wouldnt be abel to survive till tommorro stating"No, 'tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church door; ut 'tis enough, 'twill serve: ask for me to-morrow, and you shall find me a grave man."(Romeo and Juliet Act 3 Part 3)When Benvolio brings Mercutio into a house where Mercutio would be safe in Romeo was left alone.Benvolio came back to Romeo saying that Mercutio had died "O Romeo, Romeo, brave Mercutio's dead!That gallant spirit hath aspir'd the clouds,Which too untimely here did scorn the earth."(Romeo and Juliet Act 3 Part 3)Romeo knew this would be a far worse problem for him and that Tybalt was going to continue to Threaten on killing

The next day, Benvolio and Romeo have an encounter with Tybalt, who is still out to get Romeo for crashing the Capulet’s party. When Romeo refuses to duel with Tybalt, Mercutio steps in and accepts the duel. This duel, however, ultimately led to the killing of Mercutio by Tybalt. Out of guilt for Mercutio, Romeo attacks Tybalt killing him.

An argument occurs between Mercutio and Tybalt which leads to flaring tempers and aggressive actions. Romeo arrives and sees what is happening between Mercutio and Tybalt. The heated exchange led to Tybalt killing Mercutio, which made Romeo so furious that he killed Tybalt in retaliation for him killing Mercutio.

“And but one word with one of us? couple it with something, make it a word and a blow.” [III, i, 37-38] Tybalt was not willing to fight mercutio if mercutio had not escalated tybalt's anger. Moreover, Mercutio could have avoided this situation if he had showed respect in return.This comes to show how mercutio had made impulsive decisions instead of making rational decisions. As a result, we can see Mercutio's death occurs due to his rash and impulsive decisions. Mercutio’s impulsive acts result in his own passing. When Romeo refuses to participate in a duel with Tybalt, Mercutio challenges Tybalt himself. Using words which are highly intimidating and threatening, Mercutio gives Tybalt no choice but to engage in a duel. The following violent words are exchanged between the two characters.

This demonstrates the needless sacrifice of Mercutio from Tybalt’s hatred. Another character that develops this theme is Romeo. Shakespeare states that after Tybalt kills Mercutio, Romeo becomes enraged in hatred and when Tybalt returns, Romeo forgets that Tybalt is his cousin-in-law and fights Tybalt and eventually kills him. Romeo says, “Away to heaven, respective lenity, and editorial fire-eyed fury be my conduct now. Now, Tybalt, take the “villain” back again that late thou gavest me, for Mercutio’s soul is but a little way above our heads, staying for thine to keep him company.

The word ‘love’ shows that Romeo is a kind hearted, peaceful person. However by using the quotation above this unintentionally annoys Tybalt. On the other hand Tybalt uses language which is completely different to how Romeo uses it, “Romeo the hate that I bare thee can afford no better term than this, -- thou art a villain”. When Tybalt uses the word ‘hate’ this provokes Mercutio as he does not like the way Tybalt is talking about Romeo. Tybalt uses aggressive hateful language and has no respect in the way he talks towards the other characters. Moreover this shows that it does not matter how nice or horrible characters language is, it still can cause conflict between the characters and they do become aggressive.

Mercutio and Tybalt are about to fight when Romeo

. Firstly, Tybalt is to blame for Mercutio’s death as he actually gave him the wound that killed him. Also, Tybalt provokes Mercutio by insulting Romeo, ‘Thou art a villain.’ This is one of the biggest insults that Tybalt can give and would usually be followed by a duel. However, Romeo calmly replies by saying ‘Villain I am none / Therefore farewell. I see thou know’st me not.’ Because Romeo is not defending his honour, Mercutio is provoked by Tybalt’s insults and starts insulting Tybalt himself. This is what leads to the two of them fighting and Mercutio getting his fatal wound. So, if Tybalt didn’t insult Romeo or fight Mercutio, Mercutio wouldn’t have been killed.

Additionally, after Romeo’s marriage with Juliet he gets in the middle of a fight. If Romeo did not engage in the brawl between Mercutio his best friend and Tybalt his opposing rival, they would still have a fair chance at survival. Mercutio engages in a fight with Tybalt on Romeo’s behalf because Romeo refuses to fight Tybalt, since Tybalt is now Romeo’s cousin-in-law. In addition, Romeo attempts to break up the progressive fight, but his actions are futile. Furthermore, Romeo getting among Mercutio and Tybalt does more harm than good because Mercutio dies. The only explanation of how Mercutio dies is that Tybalt is able to pierce Mercutio’s chest under Romeo’s arm. Romeo blocks Mercutio’s view, leaving him defenseless and feeble.

This causes tension as Tybalt and Mercutio become even more frustrated with Romeo. Mercutio draws his sword in order to defend Romeos reputation. He says “Tybalt, you rat-catcher, will you walk?” challenging him to a duel. A feeling of foreboding hangs in the air.

In contrast, Mercutio attempts to stop Tybalt’s thirst for vengeance when he tries to duel Romeo but ultimately gets killed in the process of trying to save his good friend from being killed by Tybalt which causes Romeo to take vengeance upon Tybalt by killing him.

Mercutio, despite the circumstances displays his lighthearted nature. The actor should speak in a mocking voice, tauntingly circling Tybalt who should react with restrained anger, clenched fists and a hand on his sword. Mercutcio continues this, ignoring benvolios vain attempts at keeping the peace, until Romeo enters from the corner of the stage. With his entrance Tybalt finally breaks out of Mercutcios circle to face Romeo. He should say the line "here
