Act Three Essay Section Take Home Test (100 points)

You will have class time on Friday and Monday to work on these questions.  They are due on Tuesday at soon as you walk into the room. 

There will be a short matching quiz on Tuesday, 3/22.

For those of you doing the Act 3 Projects, they are due upon return from Easter Vacation. 3/29.  Remember, you must complete a total of two projects throughout all five acts of the play.  If you are not selecting a project from Act 3, please look over project choices for Acts 4 and 5.
 

1. Who saud these lines?  Identify the character and scene.  Briefly explain each quote (This means you must tell why each character said the following quotes and in what context.  A - I  do not have to be answered in three paragraphs).

a) Tybalt, the reason that I have to love thee
Doth much excuse the appertaining rage
To such a greeting. Villain am I none.
Therefore farewell. I see thou knowest me not.

b) I am hurt. A plague a both houses! I am sped.
No, ’tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church door; but ’tis enough, ’twill serve.
Ask for me tomorrow, and you shall find me a grave man.

c) Thy beauty hath made me effeminate
And in my temper soften’d valour’s steel!
d) O, I am fortune’s fool!

e) He is a kinsman to the Montague;
Affection makes him false; he speaks not true:
Some twenty of them fought in this black strife,
And all those twenty could but kill one life.
I beg for justice, which thou, prince, must give;
Romeo slew Tybalt, Romeo must not live.

( f) Not Romeo, prince, he was Mercutio’s friend;
His fault concludes but what the law should end,
The life of Tybalt.

g)There is no world without Verona walls,
But purgatory, torture, hell itself.
Hence banished is banished from the world,
And world’s exile is death.

h) O, tell me, friar, tell me,
In what vile part of this anatomy
Doth my name lodge? Tell me, that I may sack
The hateful mansion.

h) Thy tears are womanish; thy wild acts denote
The unreasonable fury of a beast:
Unseemly woman in a seeming man!

i) Go get thee to thy love, as was decreed,
Ascend her chamber, hence and comfort her.
But look thou stay not till the watch be set,
For then thou canst not pass to Mantua.

j) Wilt thou be gone? It is not yet near day.
It was a nightingale, and not the lark,
That pierced the fearful hollow of thine ear.
Nightly she sings on yond pomegranate tree.
Believe me, love, it was the nightingale.

k) Hang thee, young baggage! Disobedient wretch!
I tell thee what–get thee to church a Thursday
Or never after look me in the face.

l) Go in; and tell my lady I am gone,
Having displeased my father, to Lawrence’ cell,
To make confession and to be absolved.
