What is one example of a literary device in Act Two of Romeo and Juliet?

You can find one example of hyperbole in Scene 2. Romeo
and Juliet are professing their love for each other and Juliet is afraid of what will
happen if Romeo is found in her garden. She tells Romeo that he will be killed if he is
found. However, Romeo tells her: "Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye/Than twenty
of their swords!"What he means is that he is more afraid that she'll reject him than he
is of her family finding him there.

There are many examples
of dramatic irony, which is when the reader or audience knows something that one or more
characters do not yet know. One very poignant example of dramatic irony occurs in Scene
5 when Romeo and Juliet secretly get married. Their parents and other family membes do
not know this has occurred.

One example of personification
can be found at the beginning of Scene 3 spoken by Friar Laurence as he is tending to
his herbs. He says to himself: "The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning
night,/Check'ring the eastern clouds with streaks of light;" The morning is being
personified because it is smiling and the night is being personified because it is
frowning, both actions people do.
