What are the adverbs in this passage?
As a mother, Lady Capulet should support her daughter with any decisions she wants to make. She does not let Juliet marry who she wants. “Find thou the means, and I’ll find such / a man. / But now I’ll find thee joyful tidings, girl.” (3.5.115-117). When meeting Paris, Lady Capulet finds it in her best interest that Juliet marries him. After all, he is rich, well-groomed, and has a respectful family. Love and feeling plays no factor in Lady Capulet’s decisions. It doesn’t matter to her how her daughter, Juliet feels about Paris, and the marriage that is planned for her. Acting as if she knows best, Lady Capulet doesn’t look past the outside of a person.
Favorite Answer
BTW, the WHO should be WHOM. (WHOM she wants; the WHO IS TO BLAME is correct.)
HERSELF should be replaced by SHE, or SHE HERSELF. The word HERSELF shouldn’t stand alone.
And you need a comma here:
…Juliet, COMMA feels about Paris. Personally I’d just say “her daughter” and eliminate the word JULIET here, since I think the passage more than establishes the relationship.
Not a bad essay, actually. I particularly liked the flow of the sentences–for instance, beginning sentences with dependent clauses and prepositional phrases, your posing a question, your quoting. You write with a lively, entertaining style–keep it up.
