a. How does your component reflect Romeo's mental state? b. How does it relate to the larger themes of the play? Romeo’s mental state and emotion was certainly unstable due to his lover, Juliet’s death. His mind turned into a well blended solution of rage, sorrow, lament, shock, a feeling of guiltiness, and all kinds. Obviously rage, sorrow lament, and shock comes from the sudden death of Juliet, but I believe the feeling of guilty is expressed when he is apologizing to Juliet’s cousin, Tybalt. Considering that this death of Juliet, in Romeo’s point of view, was caused because of his misbehavior killing Tybalt, the apology implies that ‘if I have not killed Tybalt Juliet should be alive’. So this passage, or speech relates to the theme of ‘fate’, that we discussed about, showing that Romeo’s wrong act causing death for both of the characters, Romeo and Juliet. “For feat of that I still will stay with thee...With worms that are thy chambermaids” These sentences vaguely forshadows the following action Romeo will take. Romeo also implies that he will always be with Juliet in any circumstances.
