The part of scene 5 where Lord Capulet discovers that Juliet doesn’t give ‘her’ thanks to him for finding her a ‘worthy gentleman’ he becomes superficial and begins to insult her and threaten her that he will disown her if she doesn’t obey him. The colloquial language such as, ‘Out, you green-sickness carrion! Out, you baggage! You tallow face’. Used by Lord Capulet makes it visible. Lord Capulets’ behaviour has changed considerably. When he entered the scene comforting Juliet to an angry farther who threatens his own daughter to get married or she will be disowned.
The words of Lord Capulet portrays a lot of anger and emotions and an example of this is, ‘that god had lent us but this only child: but now I see this one is too much, ‘before shouting at the nurse, that he thought they were blessed because god gave them a child but now he has seen that this one child is too much, a curse. Before exiting the scene he says that he was trying to provider Juliet with ‘a gentleman of noble parentage’, so that she would be happy and proud of her farther for what he has done for her, every farther wants their child to be happy and proud of them and he tried and failed.
When the nurse enters interrupting Lord Capulet and saying that he is to blame not Juliet, she is trying to help and protect Juliet but, it makes Lord Capulet even more angry because she is undermining his authority and he thinks that she is just here to get the gossip when Lord C answers, ‘Utter your gravity o’er a gossip’s bowl; for we not nee it here’.
The nurse and Juliet have a really close relationship the nurse has been there for Juliet since the beginning but, when the nurse turns on Juliet it was a big shock it was very unexpected because she has been helping Juliet for as long and now she just stops advising and helping her.
In the nurses speech she says, ‘I think it best you married with the country, O, he’s a lovely gentleman!’ and ‘Your first is dead’, implying that Romeo is good as dead and that Juliet should commit bigamy, which is illegal and is a religious sin, which Juliet cannot do. After this conversation the relationship between the nurse and Juliet has finished, Juliet now only has Friar Lawrence for advice, and he will not allow Juliet to remarry because he will be going against his religious beliefs.
Behaviour changed tremendously in this scene but so did the tension. At the beginning of Act 3 Scene 5 there was hardly any tension at all, there was a peaceful mood, this is when Romeo and Juliet are together. When Juliet is trying to persuade Romeo to stay she kept on referring to ‘Nightingale’ and ‘Lark’, these are names of birds which either come out at day or night. She mentioned it because in those days nature and animals signify calm and peace, the atmosphere at the beginning of the scene. The reference to day and night also gives a sense of the scene. The reference to day and night also gives a sense of time which is important in this play. The reference to day and night also gives a sense of the time which is important in this play.
When Juliet leaves and Juliet is at the balcony waving goodbye to Romeo, when they were told by the nurse that lady Capulet is coming, she then arrives into the room. She has some news for her daughter about her engagement with Paris, Juliet’s behaviour changes tremendously and then comes to an inexplicable situation. Because, of the situation she is in her tears come out. Lady caplet’s suggestion towards her tears is that the tears are for the death of Tybalt. Lady Capulet says to her that she wishes the ‘villain Romeo‘ dead. However, Juliet who is grieving about Romeos banishment becomes dispute by saying that she also wants to see him dead, but stating her love for him ‘and yet no man like he doth grieve my heart.’
When Juliet says she doesn’t want get married to Paris, lady Capulet doesn’t tell lord Capulet her self and states to Juliet ‘there comes your father, tell him so yourself’ this blazons that, the pair of lady Capulet and Juliet are not as close as mother and daughter should be.
Shakespeare also makes the audience predict in this play. When lady Capulet claims that she wants to ‘poison’ and get Romeo killed. When Juliet went to Friar Lawrence for an excuse to get out of this situation of getting engaged to Paris, Lawrence gives her a potion that makes you go asleep for some time. On Wednesday, the day before her engagement she takes the potion and commits supposed suicide.’ Ill go to friar to know his remedy: if all else fails, myself have power to die.’
When Romeo comes to meet her, he sees Juliet dead, he also notifies that she has a poison bottle inn her hands. This makes him a looser because he could not save his wife, which leads him to take poison and he then also commits suicide.
