Question

Read the excerpt from Act III, scene iii of Romeo and Juliet.

Friar Laurence: Hence from Verona art thou banished.
Be patient, for the world is broad and wide. 20

Romeo: There is no world without Verona walls,
But purgatory, torture, hell itself.
Hence banished is banish’d from the world,
And world’s exile is death; then ‘banished,’
Is death mis-term’d. Calling death ‘banished,’ 25
Thou cutt’st my head off with a golden axe, 40
And smil’st upon the stroke that murders me.
Which statement best describes Romeo’s reaction to the news that he will be banished from Verona?

He shares his fear of a violent death.

He voices gratitude for the merciful sentence.
