  • Juliet asks how Romeo got into her place.  The orchard walls are high, and Romeo’s life would be in danger if her relatives were to find him there.  What is Romeo’s response to these questions? 

  •  Romeo risks his life to get into Juliet's house and when Juliet sees him she says:"How camest thou hither,tell me, and wherefore? The orchard walls are high and hard to climb,and the place death, considering who thou art,if any of my kinsmen find thee here."(Shakespeare,73). In response Romeo says:"With love's light wings did I o'erperch these walls. for stony limits cannot hold love out, and what love con do, that dares love attempt. Therefore thy kinsmen find thee here"(73). As the quote says love was Romeos reason to risk his life. Romeos love for Juliet was so strong that he would risk his life just to see her and that nothing could repress his love for Juliet.
