Romeo and Juliet
Innocent
Many people have terrible faiths, but out of all of them one was the most innocent. In “Romeo and Juliet”, Benvolio is free from guilt and a harmless man. He likes to keep peace. Furthermore, Benvolio had to suffer in many parts of the play. Finally, he is very helpful and does nothing wrong. Benvolio is free from guilt; he does nothing wrong and had nothing to do with lying or killing. Benvolio is the most innocent character in the play.

Benvolio suffered in many parts of the play. At first he saw that Romeo suffers the consequences of love and life. He watched as Romeo was depressed since he cannot be with the one he loves the most, Rosaline. Benvolio then suffers from watching Mercutio’s death and Romeo’s banishment. Then he had to be
