This really depends on your own opinion. Personally I believe that they shouldn't feel very guilty as they were only helping Romeo and Juliet with the choices they made. The Nurse even stopped supporting Juliet after Romeo was banished and suggested she should marry Paris, although this did mean Juliet was left alone.

Friar Lawrence advised both of them before he married them that it was moving along to fast and he shouldn't feel guilty about Juliet's death since he did arrive in time to save her and he did try to convince her to leave the tomb with him and even if he didn't try very hard, Juliet still made the decision to end her own life.

How is friar Lawrence and the nurse similar and difference?

In Romeo and Juliet, Friar Lawrence and the Nurse are similar in that they both assist Juliet and Romeo in their marriage. They both also act as something of a caretaker to their respective charges: the Friar to Romeo and the Nurse to Juliet. The two are different because the Nurse resides in the same household as Juliet, while the Friar lives a ways away from Romeo. The Friar also has other motives besides the happiness of his charge when he assists Romeo in his marriage. Friar Lawrence hopes that the marriage of Romeo to Juliet will stop the feud between the Capulets and the Montagues. The most obvious difference is the gender of themselves and their charges.These are only a few of the many similarities and differences between Friar Lawrence and the Nurse. Shakespeare has written the two to be some of the most important supportingcharacters in the play.


What information does Romeo letter give?

If you are referring to the letter Friar Lawrence gave to Friar John to send to Romeo, then it contained all the information about Juliet's death and what was really going on. It told Romeo to come to the Capulet Morgue (or whatever it's called) and meet him for the awakening of Juliet.


In Romeo and Juliette how do the friar's motives differ from the couple's motives?

Originally the Friar did not want to marry the 'Star cross'd lovers'(Prolouge) Because Romeo had only just got over Rosaline, therefore he thought Romeo was being to hasty. Another reason that the Friar was cautious when marrying the couple was that by law you have to announce a church wedding a few weeks before so that people can object, therefore because he could not do this he is risking his job and position in society. The Friar married the couple in the end in the hope of ending the feud between the two family's, his plan worked however it was under different circumstances that it worked. The familys only united once the two lovers were dead and only found out about there marrige once this had happened.

Who should be blamed for the death of Romeo and Juliet in 200 words?

In my opinion, Friar Lawrence is guilty for Romeo and Juliet's death. I think he is guilty because he married Romeo and Juliet. He gave Juliet the potion, and because he didn't get the message to Romeo, I think that he should have met up with Romeo on the outside of Capulet's tomb. Or maybe he could of gone to Mantua and met with Romeo face to face.
