Which statement best conveys the central idea of this excerpt from act iv of romeo and juliet?

friar laurnce: hold, daughter: i do spy a kind of hope,
which craves as desperate an execution.
as that is desperate which we would prevent.
if, rather than to marry county paris,
thou hast the strength of will to slay thyself,
then is it likely thou wilt undertake
a thing like death to chide away this shame,
that copest with death himself to scape from it:
and, if thou darest, i'll give thee remedy.

juliet: o, bid me leap, rather than marry paris,
from off the battlements of yonder tower;
or walk in thievish ways; or bid me lurk
where serpents are; chain me with roaring bears;
or shut me nightly in a charnel-house,
o'er-cover'd quite with dead men's rattling bones,
with reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls;
or bid me go into a new-made grave
and hide me with a dead man in his shroud;
things that, to hear them told, have made me tremble;
and i will do it without fear or doubt,
to live an unstain'd wife to my sweet love.

a) juliet is willing to trust friar laurence to reunite her with romeo.
b) juliet wants to defy her family by killing herself.
c) juliet is willing to face her worst fears to be with romeo.
d) juliet believes death is the only way to remain faithful to romeo.

Read the excerpt from act ii, scene v of romeo and juliet. friar laurence: these violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which, as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey is loathsome in his own deliciousness and in the taste confounds the appetite: 15 therefore love moderately; long love doth so; too swift arrives as tardy as too slow. friar laurence is motivated to offer this warning because he knows that something bad will certainly happen to the lovers. feels that romeo is acting foolishly and should not get married. enjoys giving advice because he is wise and can others. wants to caution romeo about the consequences of his actions.
