Question

section of text
balthasar.
as i did sleep under this yew tree here,
i dreamt my master and another fought,
and that my master slew him.
friar lawrence.
(approaches the tomb)
romeo!-
alack, alack, what blood is this, which stains
the stony entrance of the sepulcher?
what mean these masterless and gory swords
to lie discolored by this place of peace?
(looks inside the tomb)
romeo! o, pale!-who else? what, paris too?
and steeped in blood?-ah, what an unkind hour
is guilty of this lamentable chance!
the lady stirs.
what does it mean?
how does balthasar’s dream foreshadow what happened between romeo and paris?
balthasar’s dream is a direct foreshadowing
what is happening in the scene?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. For the foreshadowing question: Balthasar's dream depicts his master (Romeo) killing another man. This directly matches the later event where Romeo fights and kills Paris at Juliet's tomb, making the dream clear foreshadowing.
  2. For the scene question: Friar Lawrence arrives at Juliet's tomb, finds blood and abandoned swords at the entrance. When he looks inside, he discovers the bodies of Romeo and Paris, both dead and bloodied, and then notices Juliet beginning to wake up from her death-like sleep.

Answer:

  1. Balthasar's dream is a direct foreshadowing: It shows his master Romeo killing another man, which exactly foreshadows Romeo fighting and killing Paris at Juliet's tomb.
  2. What is happening in the scene?: Friar Lawrence arrives at Juliet's tomb, finds bloodied swords outside, looks in and discovers the dead, bloodied bodies of Romeo and Paris, then sees Juliet starting to wake from her feigned death.
