Romeo and Juliet Personification?
Answer
Examples of personification in Romeo and Juliet include - Act II, scene 3 when the friar says 'The grey-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night, chequering the eastern clouds with streaks of light' the morning can't smile that's a human trait. In the same scene, the friar again uses personification giving care the ability to use eyes, and fill a place to reside - 'care keeps his watch in every old man's eye, and where care lodges, sleep will never lie'. Lastly, in Act III, scene II, Juliet asks death to take her maidenhead (virginity).
