What’s here? a cup, clos’d in my true love’s hand?
Poison, I see, hath been his timeless end.
O churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop
To help me after! I will kiss thy lips;
Haply, some poison yet doth hang on them,
To make me die with a restorative. [Kisses him.]

Answer 2

The tragic flaw of Juliet’s character which is reflected in the above excerpt is:

her tendency to act without forethought

Step-by-step explanation:

When Juliet arose, she saw that Romeo was laying dead. She understood that he had died by drinking the poison. She didn't find any drop of poison in the cup and so she kissed him so that she can also die along with him. After kissing him, she also died laying beside him. Without thinking anything, she kissed him and lay down dead.
