    hearing the news that his wife Juliet died, Romeo already makes a decision to get horses to meet his wife in her grave. This shows Romeo doesn't put much thought into his decision because Balthazar told him the news that his wife died and the fact that Oedipus made a response quickly, shows he didn't consider the aftermath of what will happen to him if he were to go to Juliet's grave.

    in this text. However, my favorite part is how he feels about the poor. He believed that being rich doesn’t make you better than the poor. One way he supports his idea is the concept of their graves. He said even though the rich tend to be buried in bigger graves, he likes the simplicity of the smaller graves that the poor have. In the text he says, “the short and simple annals of the poor.” What he means by this is he thinks that poor people die long before they get to leave their mark on the…
