FRIAR LAURENCE Holy Saint Francis, what a change is here! Is Rosaline, whom thou didst love so dear, So soon forsaken? Young men's love then lies Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes. Jesu Maria, what a deal of brine Hath wash'd thy sallow cheeks for Rosaline! How much salt water thrown away in waste, To season love, that of it doth not taste! The sun not yet thy sighs from heaven clears, Thy old groans ring yet in my ancient ears; Lo, here upon thy cheek the stain doth sit Of an old tear that is not wash'd off yet: If e'er thou wast thyself and these woes thine, Thou and these woes were all for Rosaline: And art thou changed? Pronounce this sentence then, Women may fall, when there's no strength in men. What is the significance of the diction in this speech?

The meaning of the diction in this speech is to show how Frei is not happy with Romeo's behavior in changing his opinion so quickly about the woman he is in love with.

Explanation:

Diction is the term that explains the meaning behind the choice of words made by an author, to pass a certain message in a text. In other words, the diction seeks to explain why the author chose to use words to specify to convey a perception, an understanding of the text.

In the text shown in the question above, we can see that Frei uses the words "waste" and "forsaken" to highlight the discontent he has with Romeo's inconstancy towards women. This is why Frei disapproves of Romeo pursuing another passion, when a day ago he was completely in love and suffering for another woman.

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
