In the orchard Juliet says, "'Tis but thy name that is my enemy; / Thou art thyself, though not a Montague." What is she saying?

Juliet, still believing herself alone, asks, "What's in a name? That which we call a rose / By any other name would smell as sweet." What does the comparison argue?

Asked how he got into the garden, Romeo answers, "With love's light wings did I o'erperch these walls, / For stony limits cannot hold love out." What is he telling Juliet?

Juliet stops the vows: "I have no joy of this contract tonight; / It is too rash, too unadvis'd, too sudden, / Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be / Ere one can say 'It lightens.'" What is her worry?

Juliet tells Romeo, "My bounty is as boundless as the sea, / My love as deep; the more I give to thee, / The more I have, for both are infinite." What does she mean?

Waiting for Juliet at his cell, Friar Lawrence says, "These violent delights have violent ends, / And in their triumph die; like fire and powder, / Which as they kiss consume." What is his warning?

Told that Romeo now loves a Capulet, Friar Lawrence answers, "Is Rosaline, that thou didst love so dear, / So soon forsaken? Young men's love then lies / Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes." Why does he say it?

Back from her errand, the Nurse puts Juliet off: "I am aweary, give me leave awhile; / Fie, how my bones ache!" and later, "Is this the poultice for my aching bones?" Why does she hold the news back?

Outside the orchard wall Mercutio calls, "I conjure thee by Rosaline's bright eyes," and jokes on until Benvolio gives up the search. Why does he raise Rosaline's name?

Romeo goes straight from the orchard to Friar Lawrence's cell at daybreak. What does he want there?

In the street Romeo tells the Nurse to stay behind the abbey wall, because within the hour his man will "bring thee cords made like a tackled stair." What are the cords for?

Before she will take his answer, the Nurse tells Romeo that "the gentlewoman is young. And therefore, if you should deal double with her, truly it were an ill thing." Why does she say this?

Mercutio and Benvolio have just gone off, still joking about Rosaline, when a voice in the Capulet garden says, "He jests at scars that never felt a wound." Who says it?

In the street next morning, who says of Romeo, "Alas poor Romeo, he is already dead, stabbed with a white wench's black eye," and then asks whether he is a man to encounter Tybalt?

Who brings the news that "Tybalt, the kinsman to old Capulet, hath sent a letter to his father's house," and is answered with "A challenge, on my life"?

Who finally ends Juliet's waiting with "Then hie you hence to Friar Lawrence' cell; / There stays a husband to make you a wife"?

Romeo answers a promise of help with "O let us hence; I stand on sudden haste," and is told, "Wisely and slow; they stumble that run fast." Who gives him that answer?

Romeo, watching Juliet's window, says, "Arise fair sun and kill the envious moon, / Who is already sick and pale with grief." What is he doing to the moon in those lines?

Hearing Juliet speak, Romeo calls her as glorious to the night "As is a winged messenger of heaven / Unto the white-upturned wondering eyes / Of mortals." Which device is this?

Warned that her kinsmen will murder him, Romeo replies, "Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye / Than twenty of their swords." What device is the exaggeration?

Saying good night, Juliet tells Romeo, "This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath, / May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet." How is the comparison made?

The orchard scene ends with Juliet telling Romeo to send word by a messenger she will procure, and Romeo naming the hour of nine. What does this set in motion in Act 2?

Act 2 opens with Romeo alone in the street after the feast, saying, "Can I go forward when my heart is here? / Turn back, dull earth, and find thy centre out," before he climbs the Capulet orchard wall. What does this establish?

In the street scene Benvolio reports Tybalt's letter to the Montague house and Mercutio names it a challenge, minutes before Romeo arrives to arrange his wedding. What does this establish within Act 2?

Act 2 closes with Friar Lawrence saying, "Come, come with me, and we will make short work, / For, by your leaves, you shall not stay alone / Till holy church incorporate two in one." What has the act brought about?
