The Last Of Friar

I have medaled in peoples afairs for the last time and will never do it again. I was the death of them, cause my actions! I was the one at the funeral that regreated the most of all of them. Hopefully they will have peace in their families after all this. I will have to go into hideing and pray, they are happy together in heaven.

Aftermath

I have meddled in other people's affairs for the last time. I will be dispised by their families forever. I'm a fool for helping them at all I was simply a fool who should've left well enough alone. If only I could rewind the past week...It seems as if I'm in a tragedy written by a madman.

The Funeral of Romeo and Juliet

This is a dark dark day, These two young lovers should have never met their end like this, and I cannot help but feel completely at fault for all this. I shouldnt have made it obvious to my messenger that lives were at stake, I should have made the potion to wear off a bit sooner, I should have done so much different but now its too late...whats done is done. I can only hope that the deaths of these two children from fueding families will bring peace between them, and that the peace will not fade...

Confessions of Friar Laurence


I have failed them both! I was the cause of their deaths! I am a fool for giving the potion so soon to Juliet. From her death I didn't know these disasters would happen to Romeo and Juliet, I thought this would all be for the best, but it ended horribly not just for them but their families! I must pray to the lord to forgive me of my foolish actions of interfering with thier probems.Lord, also forgive them of their foolish actions.

Events in the graveyard


I fear the events of last night will be turned inside out to favor one side or the other, so I am here to provide an unbiased view.
First: Romeo and Paris arrive at the graveyard.
Second: They fight, Romeo is victorious.
Third: Romeo lays Paris inside the Capel's monument, sees Juliet for the first time.
Fourth: Romeo drinks whole bottle of poison, Juliet wakes up.
Fifth: Juliet commits suicide, the nightwatch and the parents arrive.

Funeral of the Living

I cannot help but wonder as I watch over dear Juliet's "funeral" if my plan is going to work out successfully. It is risky, I know, and I hope Juliet knows as well. Things could go wrong, and I'm meddling with Juliet's life in a way, and it makes me feel guilty. I hope that the potion I have prepared for her works as it should, and I hope that the news of my plan gets to Romeo in swift time...

Dear Romeo,

I am unsure whether you have recieved any news from Verona recently: I'm sure your man Balthasar has informed you of Juliet's demise. Fortunately for you this information is false: I gave Juliet a potion that set her into a coma-like state that would fool all around her that she would truly be dead. Your joy may be great, but refrain from visiting her "final" resting placce until Midnight of the 31st, when the nightwatch will have gone from the site.
Sincerely yours,
Friar L

News From Verona

After the brawl between Tybalt and Romeo Juliet came to my chamber after learning the news that Romeo had been banned by the Prince and that she was scheduled. This was unfortunate but while she wept upon my chamber floor i came up with a clever scheme. I came up with a potion "one of my specialties" to make juliet seen like she is dead so that she will not have to marry Paris. But she would actually not be dead and would awake later to her love romeo. So to tell Romeo about this i have sent him a letter.

Friar Laurence prays for the lost souls of Mercutio and Tybalt

Dear Lord,
Today we pray for the lost souls of a young Tybalt (of the Capulets) and young Mercutio (relative of Prince Escalus). Both men were killed earlier today and are now watching us from above. They had qualities that made them special in their own way: Tybalt throught dedication and swordsmanship, and Mercutio throught his wit and wisdom. The world lost two excellent people today. Friar L

News from Verona

So today was a sad day for many people: Romeo killed Tybalt, the cousin of his wife Juliet. This is an unfortunate event especially between two families. I pity Romeo for I feel as though he is too weak to handle these events which he has put upon himself. He came to my Church and asked for my help, which I gave to him. But he was disingenuous when he asked, he even considered suicide which i believe told me that the real Romeo isn't this great lover but a scared, confused teenager. So i helped him for that is what I do, I hope this all works out.

until next time,
Friar Laurence

Did I Do the Right Thing?

Throughout the past few days I have been pondering the decision I made to wed the young couple and hopefully repair the feud that has torn my city in two. I feel as if this could make or break the touchy relationship with the aforesaid families. I can't help but feel sorry for the two if they are caught.

The Marriage of Romeo and Juliet




Romeo of the Montague's and Juliet of the Capulet's


The Union of Romeo and Juliet went fairly smoothly,

after they got over the shock and

ecstasy of seeing one another again.


It took place yesterday in the church where I live.

It was a fast but uneasy marriage for me to perform.

I had no permission from either parents.


I still ponder the decision

The Rev. Friar Lawrence



Hi, I'm The Rev. Friar Lawrence. I am an unfortunate resident of Verona, Arizona. After completing Med School, I had developed a plan to become a Reverend and grow organic herbs in the garden of the church where I worked. So you see, there is a feud between two local families, The Capulets and The Montagues, both of which are very wealthy. They also each have one child, Romeo for the Montagues and Juliet of the Capulets. I am good friends with both families and children. Being a Reverend, I have discovered that they are lovers and wish to be married. I have a terrible sense of foreboding for this relationship.
