 Studying Romeo and Juliet. Here's how you can analyse the second prologue in Act 2. Bear in mind in terms of structure, this prologue is written as a sonnet. A sonnet is a verse of 14 lines and traditionally it was to do with love. We're told, old desire doth in his deathbed lie. The alliteration as well as the personification of desire is telling us that Romeo has forgotten his love for Rosalind and quickly moved on. This is basically poking fun at Romeo. Iambic pentameter is also used here to further make fun of how impulsive Romeo is. He's quick to fall in and out of love. We're told they are bewitched by the charm of looks. This hyperbole shows that both Romeo and Juliet are also sexually attracted by each other's appearance. The repetition of faux hair shows that the love is forbidden. However, this is what makes it even more exciting for both of them. Cezura and Anjomon is using these two lines to emphasise the obstacles they both face in trying to meet each other. Yet alliteration is used in passion and power to show that these obstacles only further motivate them to see each other more. An assonance here highlights how fiery the love is.
