Act 2 scene 2
romeo
Romeo compares Juliet to the sun. "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? / It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. /Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, /Who is already sick and pale with grief (Shakespeare)." Juliet is compared to the bright, warm sun that will chase away the sick, pale creature who is the moon. The moon is very jealous of the sun.
Romeo uses the words "envious moon" in his famous speechBut, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,Who is already sick and pale with grief,That thou her maid art far more fair than she:The moon is envious because Juliet is "far more fair than she", she is more beautiful than the moon and the moon envies her.
romeo says that the moon is envious because the moon was like the goddess of virgins and it is envious of Juliet's beauty. he then says "arise far sun and kill the envious moon for it is sick and pale with envy" he is saying that he wants to sleep with her. yes it is very perverted but if you studie the script a lot of it is.
Start at the beginning of Scene II. "Arise, fair sun and kill the envious moon." Do you think that the sun can kill the moon? Or is this something a person might do? Oh, and by the way, do you think the moon feels envy? The moon is apparently "sick and pale with grief". People feel grief, not rocks out in space. And it goes on and on and on. This scene is personification after personification.
"But soft! What light from yonder window breaks? It is the East, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, who is already sick and pale with grief that thou her maid art far more fair than she." When Romeo says, "Arise, fair sun" right after saying "Juliet is the sun" you can tell that he is not talking about Juliet so much as talking to her, even though she cannot hear. Thus the "thou" in "thou her maid art far more fair than she." is Juliet; it is Juliet who is far more fair than "she", that is to say, the moon. So the reason that the moon is envious, sick and pale with grief is that Juliet is prettier than the moon. Makes sense, right?

He talks about her this way: "But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon . . ."

This line from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" portrays Juliet's desire for Romeo to be transformed into daylight so he can do away with the darkness of the night, symbolized by the moon's envious and sorrowful presence. It conveys Juliet's longing for Romeo to overcome barriers and bring an end to their feuding families' strife.

Romeo wants the sun to kill the envious moon because he believes the moon is a symbol of unattainable love and beauty due to the moon's ever-changing nature. By having the sun kill the moon, Romeo is expressing his desire to rid himself of obstacles preventing him from being with his love, Juliet.
The title of this poem is "Sonnet to Christ and the Holy Spirit". It is a Christian adaptation of Shakespeare's famous "Sonnet 18" ("Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?"). The poem portrays the Holy Spirit as the guiding light and source of truth, calling on the reader to dissolve their ego and embrace their faith.
It means he compare moon to juliet and also wants to have sex with her ans have the babies
Day happens because we are in the sun's direct light. The sun seems to "arise" when actually the earth is rotating. The moon can be out in the "daytime" the moon's orbit around the earth has little to do with night and day. Although the moon is brighter at night.
Not very fair at all, It stole my cheese.
