Oh, dude, that's some fancy talk right there! So, like, when your dreams presage joyful news, it basically means your subconscious is predicting some good stuff coming your way. It's like your brain's way of hinting at positive things on the horizon. So, yeah, get ready for some good vibes, my friend!

What does interpreting for the following eye of sleep mean in Romeo and Juliet?

You have misquoted. The phrase, from Act V Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet is: "If I may trust the flattering truth of sleep, My dreams presage some joyful news at hand." And what Romeo is saying is that he has had a pleasant dream and he feels good about it. The dream tells him there is some joyful news at hand. But he is not sure he should trust it, because the truths of dreams can flatter, can tell you what you want to hear. The "flattering truth of sleep" means dreams that tell you what you want to hear.


What do the first two lines in Act 5 of Romeo and Juliet mean?

Romeo says: If I may trust the flattering truth of sleep My dreams presage some joyful news at hand. Romeo has been having dreams which, he thinks, foretell (that's what presage means) some good news. This is the meaning of the second line. However, he is not ready to accept without question this apparent good news. By "flattering truth of sleep" he means that what we see in our dreams may just tell us what we want to hear--thus "flattering". So he is not sure he can trust his dreams. This is the meaning of the first line. Taken together they mean something like "If my dreams aren't just telling me what I want to hear, they foretell good news."


Why is romeo disturbed by the dream he has had - what sort of words does he use to describe this dream?

Romeo talks about his dreams more than once. In Act I Scene iv he reports that he had a disturbing dream: Romeo: And we mean well in going to this masque; But 'tis no wit to go. Mercutio: Why, may one ask? Romeo: I dreamt a dream tonight. However, we never find out what that dream was because Mercutio blathers on and on about Queen Mab and won't let Romeo get a word in edgeways. In Act V, Scene i, Romeo talks about his dreams again and says, "If I may trust the flattering truth of sleep, my dreams presage some joyful news at hand." He describes this dream in some detail, but of course it is not a dream that he is disturbed by--rather the opposite.


What does Mercutio mean when he says I talk of dreams which are the children of an idle brain?

dreams are not always answers


What is the theme of mercutio speech in act 1 in romeo and Juliet?

Presumably you mean his "Queen Mab" speech in Act 4, which is about dreams, and how different people have dreams. It is a long speech with curiously little point to it. As Romeo says, "Thou talk'st of nothing."
