Question

Romeo and Juliet
by William Shakespeare

Juliet.

—I will kiss thy lips;

Haply some poison yet doth hang on them,

To make me die with a restorative. [Kisses him.]

Thy lips are warm.

1 Watch. [Within]

Lead, boy; which way?

Juliet.

Yea, noise? then I'll be brief.—O happy dagger! [Snatching Romeo's dagger.]

This is thy sheath [Stabs herself]; there rest, and let me die. [Falls on Romeo's body, and dies.]

Answer 1

Based on the provided excerpt from *Romeo and Juliet* and the description of the painting, the two correct answers that match the excerpt are:

1. **character** - The painting depicts Juliet and Romeo, reflecting the key characters in the excerpt.

2. **setting** - The tomb setting aligns with the scene described in the excerpt where Juliet is kneeling over Romeo's body.

The other options, such as "visual contrast," "era of creation," and "language," do not directly match the specifics of the excerpt and the details of the painting as described.
