Act 2

At night, after the great party hosted my the honorable Capulet, I heard Juliet speaking to somebody on her balcony. I heard her asking where Romeo was. Then I hear a mans voice, I was positive it was Romeo because I heard him say he would no longer be Romeo. I could hear Romeo swearing his love for Juliet. How sweet! It seems to me that Romeo loves Juliet and that Juliet loves Romeo. I had to call Juliet so she would not get caught, but that sneaky girl went out again! When I noticed she was out, I was going to call her in, but I heard talk of marriage and decided to see what they had to say. Tomorrow, Juliet is going to send someone to finalize the plan. It's probably going to me. Then, they said goodnight to each other which, they

took a long time to do and Romeo climbed down.

I went out to go met and talk with this Romeo to figure out when Juliet was getting married. He was with this strange man who constantly mocked me. Oh, I was furious at that man! What kind of man is that childish and rude? I dislike him very much. But, forget him. I had to seek out Romeo and talk about the marriage. I found the fellow and warned that if he did anything wrong to my Juliet he would pay for it. The marriage was settled that day that afternoon. Romeo was so kind that he gave me money for my troubles he is truly kind, I have a good feeling about Romeo.

After receiving the news I journeyed home to tell Juliet of the good news. Juliet was being oh so impatient. I was tired and body was aching. But, Juliet so anxious keep asking and asking what he said. Finally I told her they were to be married at Friar Laurence's cell that afternoon and that Romeo would climb a ladder to her room to finish the marriage.

Nurse: But first let me tell ye, if ye should lead her into a fool's paradise, as they say, it were a very gross kind of behaviour, as they say; for the gentlewoman is young, and, therefore, if you should deal double with her, truly it were an ill thing to be offered to any gentlewoman, and very weak dealing.

Act 2 Scene 4 Lines: 157-163

The literary significance is that it reveals a character. The Nurse is the speaker and she says this quote after she is mocked by Mercutio and finds she finds Romeo. The Nurse is was threatening Romeo not to mess around or be dishonest to Juliet or The Nurse will get Romeo back for it. By threatening Romeo she is protecting Juliet, this shows that The Nurse really does care for Juliet and wants the best for her and wants to make sure she is with a man who cares.

Act 1

I heard that Sampson and Gregory got into a fight with the Montague's. Stupid! I don't know why they fight like that. Personally I think it's pointless. You would think that those people would have better things to do than fight. I cannot even remember what the bitter rivalry was all about. Also when I was cleaning up around the house I overheard Capulet and Paris talking. It seems that the noble Paris wants to marry Juliet. My Juliet! I just know he will be good for her. Oh! I do hope things work out for Juliet.

I was talking with Lady Capulet and I remembered my dear Susan. She was my daughter and I wonder if she were here today how she would look. But, with Susan I would not have Juliet.The times spent with Juliet has grown me closer to my dear. I love her as if she was one of my own. Oh, I can remember a hilarious time with Juliet. She was young and still learning. Juliet fell right on her face! I was laughing uncontrollably it was a joyful time.

Nurse: What, lamb! What, ladybird!
