  1. 5. (page 96 NFS) Helios is the Greek God of the sun, and he was one of the original Titan gods. In Friar Lawrence's line, "From forth day's path and Titan's fiery wheels" is a reference to Helios' chariot that he drove each day to make the sun rise. In this line, Shakespeare is using a mythological (A _ L U _ _ _ N). Authors like to reference history, mythology, literature and popular culture to make their writing more meaningful for readers.
  2. 7. (page 96 NFS) The SIMILE in line 3 compares fleckled (D _ _ _ N _ S _)to a (_ R _ _ K A _ D).
  3. 8. (page 96-97 NFS) At the beginning of Act 2, Scene 3, Friar Lawrence is gathering herbs; this is important because it FORESHADOWS an important event that will come later on in Act 3. On the Original Text side Friar Lawrence says, "I must fill up this osier cage or ours" (page 96). Look on the Modern Text side and write what an "osier cage" is.
  4. 9. (page96 NFS) In an example of PERSONIFICATION, Friar Lawrence refers to the Eartn as a (M _ _ _ ER). The clue words are children, (W _ _ B), the part of a woman's body where babies are conceived and bosom, the part of a woman's body that feeds the baby after birth.
  5. 10. (page 96 NFS) What are the two words in Friar Lawrence"s first line that shows the PERSONIFICATION?

  1. 1. (page 96-97 NFS) Friar Lawrence refers to the weeds in his basket as "baleful" which is an adjective that means full of menacing or malign influences; pernicious or deadly. Look on the Modern Text side and find the word that is used for the translation of BALEFUL. "I have to fill this basket of mine with ______ weeds and medicinal flowers," (page 97).
  2. 2. (page 96-97 NFS) An APOSTROPHE is a dramatic device that has a character talking directly to an object. In the beginning of Act 2, Scene 3, Friar Lawrence is talking to (P _ A _ _ S) and (F _ _ W _ R S_). This is an example of APOSTROPHE.
  3. 3. (page 96 NFS) In Lines 1-5 of Friar Lawrence's speech uses poetry to convey nature's (S _N R _ _ E)
  4. 4. (page 96-97 NFS) Friar Lawrence is fascinated by plants, flowers and herbs because he knows that they are (P _ W _ _ F _ _) [see line 15] because they can both heal as medicine or poison someone if an evil person misuses it.
  5. 6. (page 96-97 NFS) Juliet wants to protect this during the balcony scene. This word means moral excellence; goodness; righteousness. Friar Lawrence uses this word when he says, "(V _ _ _ U __) itself turns vice, being misapplied" (page 96). This means the moral excellence of the earth- the medicines that can save a person, can be turned to EVIL when and if a person abuses it.
