Is about Romeo and Juliet. Note the sonnet form of the chorus. What are we told about Rosaline? What is again emphasized in this Prologue? What conclusion do we draw about the young lovers?

Answer:

The Prologue does not merely set the scene of Romeo and Juliet, it tells the audience exactly what is going to happen in the play. The Prologue refers to an ill-fated couple with its use of the word “star-crossed,” which means, literally, against the stars. Stars were thought to control people's destinies
