Who
is to blame for Romeo and Juliet’s death??
Many people can be blamed for the
death of Romeo and Juliet. But I blame Friar Lawrence. In this essay, I will
explain how Friar Lawrence is to blame for this terrible tragedy.
One
reason that Romeo and Juliet’s death is Friar Lawrence’s fault is because if
Friar Lawrence had just delivered the message to Romeo himself, (or gotten
someone more trustworthy) then the letter saying that Juliet isn’t actually
dead would have been delivered and everyone would have been okay. He could have
just made the journey himself.
Another
reason why Romeo and Juliet’s death is Friar Lawrence’s fault is because Friar
Lawrence could have literally told Romeo about his and Juliet’s plan BEFORE
Juliet took the potion and fell asleep. This would have just caused everything
to be 100% solid in preparation and most likely would not have failed.
One
last reason that this was Friar Lawrence’s fault was because I understand that
he was being nice when marrying Romeo and Juliet but if he had just denied them
this in the first place, this probably never would have happened. Romeo and
Juliet could have just gone to see each other frequently or met up with one
another.
In
conclusion, the terrible tragedy of Romeo and Juliet was Friar Lawrence’s fault
for many reasons. Most of them just minor stupid errors. But in the end, Friar
Lawrence did screw everything up. Get it together Friar…
