Romeo & Juliet

Romeo: 

“I fear too early, for my mind misgives

Some consequence yet hanging in the stars

Shall bitterly begin he’s fearful date

With this nights revels, and expire the term

Of a dispised life clos’d in my breast,

By some vile forfeit of untimely death.

But he that hath the steerage of my course

Direct my sail! On, Lusty gentleman”

This is a good quotation that contains within it a strong reference to Romeo’s fate. What is needed now is for you to explain that in your own words, using the relevant parts of the quotation for reference. I look forward to reading it.
