Place: Friar Lawrence’s cell
Time: Monday Morning
Characters: Friar Lawrence, Romeo.
Friar Lawrence is alone picking herbs and comparing them to virtues of humans alone when Romeo arrives and tells him of his love for Juliet and his wish to marry her, the enemies daughter. Friar Lawrence originally disagreed but then saw that it could turn the hatred between the families to friendship.
Quote: “For this alliance may so happy prove to turn your households rancour to pure love.”
Soliloquy (speaking thoughts out loud): “In man as well as herbs, grace and rude will and where the worser predominant full soon canker death eats up that plant”
