PRINCE
Where are the vile beginners of this fray?
PRINCE
Where are the evil men who started this fight?
BENVOLIO
105O noble prince, I can discover all
The unlucky manage of this fatal brawl.
There lies the man, slain by young Romeo,
That slew thy kinsman, brave Mercutio.
BENVOLIO
Oh, noble prince, I can tell you everything about the unfortunate circumstances of this deadly fight. Over there Tybalt is lying dead. He killed your relative, brave Mercutio, and then young Romeo killed him.
LADY CAPULET
Tybalt, my cousin! O my brother’s child!
110O Prince! O cousin! Husband! Oh, the blood is spilled
Of my dear kinsman! Prince, as thou art true,
For blood of ours shed blood of Montague.
O cousin, cousin!
LADY CAPULET
Tybalt was my nephew! He was my brother’s son! Oh Prince, oh nephew, oh husband! Oh, my nephew is dead! Oh Prince, as you are a man of honor, take revenge for this murder by killing someone from the Montague family. Oh cousin, cousin!
PRINCE
   Benvolio, who began this bloody fray?
PRINCE
Benvolio, who started this fight?
BENVOLIO
Tybalt here slain, whom Romeo’s hand did slay.
115Romeo, that spoke him fair, bade him bethink
How nice the quarrel was and urged withal
Your high displeasure. All this uttered
With gentle breath, calm look, knees humbly bowed,
Could not take truce with the unruly spleen
120Of Tybalt deaf to peace, but that he tilts
With piercing steel at bold Mercutio’s breast,
Who, all as hot, turns deadly point to point,
And, with a martial scorn, with one hand beats
Cold death aside and with the other sends
125It back to Tybalt, whose dexterity,
Retorts it. Romeo, he cries aloud,
“Hold, friends! Friends, part!” and, swifter than his tongue,
His agile arm beats down their fatal points,
And ’twixt them rushes—underneath whose arm
130An envious thrust from Tybalt hit the life
Of stout Mercutio, and then Tybalt fled.​

Answer 1

The prince's first two lines are a use of amplification as he is repeating himself for emphasis. This makes the story more dramatic.

Benvolio uses epithet when he is mentioning that Mercutio is brave. This is because he is listing a quality Mercutio has and is saying it before his name.

Benvolio also seems to be repeating himself when he says noble prince once again when continuing with the details. He didn't have to repeat it over again but it adds emphasis to the story. He also repeats himself once again when describing what occurred but in a less poetic and more serious fashion.

Lady Capulet's grief also adds to the dramatic effect as she lists off the dead man's relations. This appears to be an anaphora when she says "O".

Once again, just like Benvolio has, she repeats what she said earlier except in a more easy to understand and less condensed form. This is only adding more emphasis.

Once again the prince asks what happened to Benvolio. He already asked this at the beginning but he is using more emphasis.

Benvolio speaks to him poetically. However, at the end of this line, it also describes the way he said it and how he postured himself in front of the prince. This is adding more onto the dialogue.

Beyond this point I don't get the rest sorry lol
