Thursday. "On Thursday next, at St. Peter's church the gallant county Paris shall make you a joyful bride."


What arrangement does lord Capulet make?

They want Juliet to marry some guy called Paris.


What impulsive dicision does Lord Capulet make to help Juliet overcome her grief for Tybalt's?

Remember folks. When you ask a question, be as precise and accurate as possible. This question, from Shakespeare's ROMEO & JULIET (apparently) is difficult to comprehend. Decision concerning what? Also, the location of "act scene iv" remains vague. Do you mean Act IV scene 4? I can only surmise, but I suspect that this question is asking "What decision concerning Juliet does Lord Capulet make in Act IV scene 4?" It is in this scene that Lord Capulet decides to arrange a marriage for his daughter with Paris. Recall that earlier in the play Capulet told Paris to wait at least "two more summers" before Juliet would be "ripe to be a bride." But in this scene of Act IV we see the change of mind. It's a feature of ROMEO & JULIET that every major character makes a spontaneous "change of mind" or "moment of decision" that seems unaccountable for any logical reason. This is that moment for Lord Capulet. He expects that Juliet will be "ruled" by him (that is, will appreciate what he does). But, boy! is he wrong! Note that Capulet sets the wedding up for Thursday (in this play which begins on a Sunday morning). Later on he will actually rush the wedding ahead one day, to Wednesday. But at the end of IV,4 the wedding is arranged for Thursday of that mid July week. Hope this helps. --CLV


What does Romeo believe as a result of his dream?

Although the dream is about his own death, he is encouraged by it. "My dreams presage some joyful news at hand"


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 is tybalts mood as the scene develope act 1 scence5?

Tybalt's mood in Act 1, Scene 5 of "Romeo and Juliet" is initially joyful as he is enjoying the Capulet's party. However, his mood quickly turns hostile and vengeful when he recognizes Romeo and wants to challenge him for attending the party. He is fueled by anger and a desire for revenge.


How is Juliet not fickle when she speaks in ambiguous to her mother about Romeo?

In act three scene five, Juliet uses her words carefully so that her mother doesn't know if she is talking about Romeo or Tybalt. Juliet is weeping at Romeo's departure, but tells her mother that she's not well. Her mother, however, jumps to the conclusion that Juliet is weeping over the death of Tybalt. Thus begins a dialogue in which Lady Capulet speaks of Tybalt but Juliet's replies are about Romeo. Juliet tells her mother she is not well. Lady Capulet thinks she is talking about Tybalt. "Evermore weeping for your cousin's death? What, wilt thou wash him from his grave with tears..." Juliet replies with "Yet let me weep with such a feeling of loss." Here she doesn't make it known that her feeling of loss is for Romeo and not as much for Tybalt. Lady Capulet says she was going to send someone to kill Romeo and hopes Juliet will then be happy. Juliet says "Indeed I never shall be satisfied With Romeo till I behold him-dead-". She used the word 'dead' on purpose so her mother will think dead refers to Romeo. But Juliet uses the word in reference to her heart. "-Is my poor heart so for a kinsman vexed." Later in the dialogue, Lady Capulet says"…Thursday morn The County Paris, at St. Peter's Church, Shall happily make thee there a joyful bride." Lady Capulet realizes Juliet wasn't talking about Tybalt at all when she tells her "…I will not marry yet; and when I do, I swear it shall be Romeo…" Her mother then tells her to tell her father and see how he will take it.
