Who is Titan in Romeo and Juliet?

Answer 1

The name only appears in this part of Friar Lawrence's first speech:

The grey-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night,

Chequering the eastern clouds with streaks of light,

And flecked darkness like a drunkard reels

From forth day's path and Titan's fiery wheels

From this we can deduce that Titan is supposed to be the guy riding the chariot of the sun. And as it happens this is one of the names sometimes used to describe the sun-god, along with Helios, Hyperion and Sol. Increasingly over time, Apollo was associated with this god.
