Theme of love quotes in Romeo and Juliet QuizSearch 0.0 / 5 ? English LiteratureRomeo and JulietGCSEAQA Created by: mm2004Created on: 13-09-18 19:02 This quote shows Romeo revers Juliet above himself by using religious imagery, and going against patriarchal norms "This holy shrine... my lips, two blushing pilgrims"- Act 1 Scene 5 1 of 6 In this quote Juliet teasingly puns at something whilst still continuing on with the extended religious metaphor "And palm to palm is holy palmer's kiss"- Act 1 Scene 5 2 of 6 In this quote Juliet says that Romeo lacks originality, however she is still smitten "You kiss by th'book"- Act 1 Scene 5 3 of 6 Romeo here argues against Juliet's previous 'punny' quote, resulting in her letting him kiss her "O, the, dear Saint, let lips do what hands do. They pray..." Act 1 Scene 4 of 6 This quote makes us question if Romeo really loved Rosaline or not. He presents love in a negative manner "Under love's heavy burden do I sink" Act 1 Scene 4 5 of 6 Here Romeo describes love violently, this juxtaposes against his romanticised character "Is love a tender thing? It is too rough, too rude, too boist'rous and it pricks like thorn" 6 of 6
