Queen Mab becomes more unrealistic and phony over the course of the speech. 5. How does the fact that Romeo and Juliet use a great deal of religious imagery in their first meeting with one another affect the depiction of their love? It elevates their love and makes it appear sacred. It has no affect on the depiction of their love. It makes their love seem ordinary and unremarkable. It makes their love seem forbidden. 6. When Romeo calls Juliet “the sun” in the “Balcony Scene,” he makes the first of many comparisons of Juliet and bright or brilliant objects. These comparisons lead Romeo and readers to think that Juliet is like a puzzle, odd and hard to understand. Juliet is like a friend Romeo can tell his problems to. Juliet is like the heavenly bodies, wondrous and precious. Juliet is like other girls, easy to please and attainable. 7. Why does Friar Laurence agree to marry Romeo and Juliet?
