LO: To analyse the Prince Escalus’s speech and Romeo’s imagery
using PEE analysis

4. Look back at Prince Escalus’s speech
• Which lines are most powerful to you?
• Why?

5. P.E.E example
The Prince of Verona is furious with both the Montagues
and Capulets and is horrified by their behaviour as is
evident by his claim that their ‘bloody hands’ have created
‘purple fountains issuing from your veins!’
Here the exclamatory phrase illustrates his fury while the
description of the following blood as like a ‘fountain’
illustrates the waste of life and the vast amount of blood
lost and let in their needless killings and fights. He
therefore condemns them all as being stained with blood as
if they are all equally responsible and equally murderers of
the most heinous nature.

6. Now it’s your turn!
The Prince of Verona condemns both the Capulets and Montagues.
This is evident in his phrase, ‘…………………,’ which
shows…………………………………….
Challenge – can you
think of alternative
interpretations?

7. Imagery from Romeo’s speech
Romeo also compares love to a number of
different things, using imagery to convey
how love makes him feel and how he views
it. Try to explain what some of these
images tell us about love:

8. ‘Love, whose view is muffled’

9. ‘A sea nourished with lovers’ tears’

10. Image Romeo
Uses:
Explanation:
‘Love, whose view is
muffled’
Love is blind therefore we cannot
choose who we fall for because it
decided for us
‘A smoke raised
with the fume of
sighs’
‘A fire sparkling in
lovers’ eyes’
‘A sea nourished
with lovers’ tears’
Love is a vast experience that is only
made more immense by the pain and
tears it creates. Like the sea, it
creates fierce and changeable
emotions

11. ‘A madness’
‘A choking gall
(sickness)’
