“These violent delights have violent ends.” This quote is said by Friar Lawrence and is wise warning towards them saying do not rush things or this marriage that you are trying to rush will lead to death. Fate is revealed in Romeo and Juliet in many ways, but the most important is through the plot device of coincidence. There are many examples one of them is when the priest Friar John gets quarantined because there was a disease and nobody was allowed in or out of the city.

One response to “Fate in Romeo and Juliet”

This has all the right ideas, Seyi. You are clearly confident in your understanding of the mechanisms of fate.
Now the job is to develop your writing style. My first recommendation is that you re-read this yourself – as I think by doing this you’ll see that there are pieces of explanation missing.
The purpose of this kind of writing is to explain your full understanding and to demonstrate that you can back up your explanation with full reference to the text.
In this paragraph you currently have not explained who “Romeo and Juliet” are (you just refer to them as “them”) and you haven’t explained WHY the quarantine of Friar John is an example of the action of fate.
Let me know if you need more assistance.
