}Aſter he kills Tybalt, Romeo feels that fate has led him to this new terrible situation: ‘O, I am Fortune’s fool!’ However, we must also appreciate that Romeo has brought about this disaster himself as he made a passionate, vengeful decision to fight and kill Tybalt.
}Te death of Tybalt and the Prince’s decision to banish Romeo from Verona makes Friar Laurence’s plan to unite the families even less likely to succeed.
