a more beautiful morning than that of the 24th august last could not be conceived. no wind,
no waves, but little tide, and the sea presenting that rarely calm appearance as if oil had been
poured upon the waters. at four minutes before one o'clock, captain webb, well smothered
in porpoise grease, dived in from the end of the admiralty pier. it was a beautiful, bright,
sunshiny day; and as he swam away from the pier, his broad shoulders shooting through the
water, and gleaming in the light of the sun, he very much resembled some large seal or huge
fish, not merely in smell, but in appearance.

"and i will do it without fear or doubt, to live an unstained wife to my sweet love". juliet faces her fears and trusts in god and friar lawrence. she is forced to use trickery in order to stay true to dear romeo. this showed remarkable courage. before she takes the potion she uses a soliloquy that confronts all her fears. she speaks in blank verse showing the seriousness of the situation. when juliet awakes to see a lifeless romeo lying beside her, juliet's maturity and loyalty takes over and she takes the decision to choose eternity over the present. the quotation "then i'll be brief. o happy dagger! this is my sheath; there rust, and let me die." shows the quickness and determination of juliet's death. during the period of a few days juliet matures into a committed and reliable woman and wife, capable of taking decisions without the of others. shakespeare shows this by clearly stating the different stages that happen and by making everything occur in a short period of time.part cwrite a 300-word essay arguing the thesis of your analysis.
