Dost thou love me? I know thou wilt say 'Ay,' And I will take thy word: yet if thou swear'st, Thou mayst prove false; at lovers' perjuries Then say, Jove laughs.

The theme depicted through Juliet's monologue is B: Love is powerful.

The reason behind this is that Juliet asks Romeo if he loves her and says that if he says "yes" she will believe it but if he swears he does, he may be lying. She asks Romeo that if he really loves her, he must say it truly. This is how she explains that love is powerful.
