An allusion is an indirect reference to something in particular. An example of an allusion ins Romeo and Juliet would be: In Act 3 Scene 2 Juliet says 'Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds, Towards Phoebus' lodging: such a wagoner, As Phaethon would whip you to the west, And bring in cloudy night immediately.' These words are an allusion that refers to Helios and Phaethon (the sun-god and his son).
"Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds, towards Phoebus' Lodging."
list three examples of scenes from act 1 romeo and juliet that show comic elements?
Allusion is easy to find in Romeo and Juliet because of the side notes. Allusion is a reference to a person, place, or thing in history or in another reading. For example: "Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds, towards Phoebus' lodging. Such a wagoner as Phaeton would whip you to the west..." (3.2.1-4)
The words "Bondage is hoarse" are Shakespeare's and so are not an allusion when used by him. If you wrote in your book that "his voice is hoarse as bondage" that would be an allusion. However, if you go a little farther with Juliet's line,"Bondage is hoarse, and may not speak aloud;Else would I tear the cave where Echo lies,"we find an allusion to Echo, a nymph in classical mythology who repeated what was said (or sung) to her, although a cave does not figure in any of the various and varied retellings of the myth.

An example of allusion in Shakespeare's work is in "Romeo and Juliet," when Romeo compares Juliet to the sun during their first meeting: "But, soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun." This alludes to the idea of the sun being a source of light and warmth, conveying the intensity of Romeo's feelings for Juliet.
Juliet makes an allusion to Phoebus when she refers to the sun god, Apollo, who drives the chariot of the sun across the sky. This allusion highlights the power and brightness of Romeo in her eyes.
Yes, there are many examples of literary allusions in literature. One famous example is in George Orwell's novel "1984," which alludes to the biblical story of Adam and Eve in the portrayal of the characters Winston and Julia. Another example is in William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet," where Juliet makes a reference to the story of Pyramus and Thisbe to describe her own situation with Romeo.

An example of an allusion is referring to someone as a "modern-day Romeo" to suggest they are romantic and passionate like the character from Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet." This references the familiar story and character to help create a specific image or understanding for the audience.

Renaissance
There are obvious allusions to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and also The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Love Story revolves around the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet, however Taylor puts a twist; rather than Romeo and Juliet parting through death, Romeo and Juliet run away together and get married in Swift's version, ending with a "happily ever after."

Do you mean the first two lines "There is a town beyond the Alps, a town of ancient fame, whose bright renown yet shineth clear: Verona is its name."? Or perhaps it is "And I as well contented am as if myself alone did from the Ocean reign unto the sea of Ind" (Around line 878; "Ind" here means India.)You did ask about the poem Romeus and Juliet by Arthur Brooke, not the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare.
