A pun is a type of wordplay that jokes about the different meaning of words. Some examples of puns in Romeo and Juliet include: 'Dreamers often lie' (Lie: lie down as in to sleep, or lie as in to not tell the truth) and 'ask for me to-morrow, and you shall find me a grave man' (grave: meaning serious but also meaning death).

Mercutio, no doubt. He jests and puns every chance he gets. He and Romeo's relationship, despite they being complete opposites, provide the comic relief for the play.
