Mercutio does not have a poor self-image in "Romeo and Juliet." He is confident, witty, and daring, known for his sharp tongue and quick retorts. However, his excessive pride and sense of invincibility ultimately lead to his downfall when he is fatally wounded in a duel with Tybalt.

romeo was a poor men.=their parents hated each other.==he died at the end.=
Because I am old and poor, I'd be the Apothecary.
He's called an apothecary. It's another word for pharmacist.
Romeo hears that Juliet has died although she has only faked it and so he buys a poison from a poor apothecary and drinks it by her side seconds before she wakes again.
Romeo thinks Juliet is dead Doesn't want to live without her The apothecary is poor, gets paid
Technically, yes, Juliet dies a virgin in Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet." Despite being married to Romeo, the consummation of their marriage is never explicitly stated in the text. So, in the end, poor Juliet meets her tragic demise without ever getting down and dirty.
Lord Capulet
He foresees that it might end the feud between the families. And he's right, eventually and after a great deal of suffering and death.
The enmity has made lousy sacrifices.
This is Romeo's description of the Apothecary whose shop he passes in Mantua. When Romeo decides to commit suicide (because he believes Juliet is dead) he wonders where he can buy poison (selling poison is illegal in Mantua). Then he remembers how poor the Apothecary is, and thinks that a man as desperate as that will be willing to break the law as long as the price is right.
