Act 5, Scene 3: The Tragic End

PROMPT C
Quote lines from the scene that you enjoyed and comment on them. Again, here is an example post from a student reading Hamlet.
 
 
 
"Oh, here Will I set up my everlasting rest
And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars
From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last!
Arms, take your last embrace: And lips, Oh you
The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss
A dateless bargain to engrossing death!"
 
 
This quote is very sad, since Romeo is talking about how there is nothing left for him to live for, and it is time for him to leave the world. But, it shows how much he loves Juliet, and how she means everything to him. Its a tragic ending, but very touching in a way as well. Even though this story ends with the death of the strongest characters, it shows how true love can beat anything even family rivalries. As well as the "last kiss" touched me very much, as it shows compassion and fierce love.
