There are two prologues in Romeo and Juliet; one at the beginning of the play and one at the beginning of Act 2. The one at the beginning of the play is much more famous, but it is the one at the beginning of Act 2 that says, "But passion lends them power, time means, to meet." Please note that it is power TO MEET which passion lends them, not just any power.

How is the setting important to the play Romeo and Juliet?

The setting to Romeo and Juliet is important because it tells you where they are and its easier to follow along to what they do and where they do it. Or, on the other hand, the setting is not important at all, as the Romeo+Juliet movie demonstrates. You can set this play anywhere you like and it will still make sense. Please note that Shakespeare gives the physical setting (the city of Verona), but not the temporal one. Nothing in the play indicates what century it is supposed to take place in.


What is the act two prologue of Romeo and Juliet?

"Now old desire doth in his deathbed lie And young affection gapes to be his heir; That fair for which love groaned for and would die, With tender Juliet matched, is now not fair. Now Romeo is beloved, and loves again, Alike bewitched by the charm of looks; But to his foe supposed he must complain, And she steal love's sweet bait from fearful hooks. Being held a foe, he may not have access To breathe such vows as lovers use to swear; And she as much in love, her means much less To meet her new beloved any where. But passions lends them power, time means, to meet, Tempering extremities with extreme sweet."


What does the word volume most likely mean in Romeo and Juliet?

The word only appears in Mrs. Capulet's speech in Act 1, where it means a book."Read o'er the volume of young Paris' face,And find delight writ there with beauty's pen;Examine every married lineament,And see how one another lends contentAnd what obscured in this fair volume liesFind written in the margent of his eyes."


What does the chorus say at the beginning of Act II in Romeo and Juliet?

Now Romeo's old feelings of desire are dying, and a new desire is eager to take their place. Romeo groaned for the beautiful Rosaline and said he would die for her, but compared with tender Juliet, Rosaline doesn't seem beautiful now. Now someone loves Romeo, and he's in love again-both of them falling for each others' good looks. But he has to make his speeches of love to a woman who's supposed to be his enemy. And she's been hooked by someone she should fear. Because he's an enemy, Romeo has no chance to see Juliet and say the things a lover normally says. And Juliet's just as much in love as he, but she has even less opportunity to meet her lover. But love gives them power, and time gives them the chance to meet, sweetening the extreme danger with intense pleasure.
