Friar Lawrence’s second monologue occurs during the morning of the wedding day of Juliet and Paris, a little after the Capulets find their daughter “dead”. He comforts the Capulets by saying that Juliet has achieved the highest form of happiness by dying and entering heaven. However, this monologue foreshadows Juliet’s future death with her lover but both the audience and the Friar know that Juliet isn’t dead and is merely sleeping. In a previous scene, Friar Lawrence devised a plan to help Juliet get to Romeo and gives her a sleeping potion that would make her appear dead for two days.

Some may believe that fate and destiny was the cause of Romeo and Juliet’s death. Others may argue that the cause of their deaths were from the actions of the characters in the book. You can even make an argue for both sides and be able to give specific examples for each. Ultimately, I think that Friar John is the one to blame for their deaths. His boss sent him on an important mission to deliver the plan to Romeo and he was playing at some sick guy’s house. Then he failed to ask the people who quarantined him to notify Friar Lawrence of the mishap. So really the blame goes to him and it is not fate nor destiny.…
