Cards (2)

  • 'O brawling love! O loving hate!' - Romeo (A1S1)
    The oxymoron expresses his inner turmoil about his love with Rosaline. The contradiction shows that hate and love can coexist. This highlights the ambivalent emotions felt by Romeo.
  • 'My only love sprung from my only hate!' - Juliet (A1S5)
    The antithesis here emphasises the fact that the man she has fallen in love with is her only enemy, the Montague family.
