Juliet's Soliloquy

Juliet's soliloquy : act 4, scene 3, line 15-59 

  This soliloquy is about how she's nervous to take the poison. She's starting to second guess it because what if it doesn't work? What if it's actually something that friar's trying to use to kill her so she doesn't squeal on him? What if she wakes up before the days are over or what if it doesn't work at all and she has to marry Paris? What if she goes crazy and starts playing with Tybalt's dead body? She's questioning all of these things before she takes it because she's procrastinating and doesn't want anything to go wrong with the plan.

  The significance it has to the play is that it is the beginning of the end, the first step towards the end result of this tragedy. She thinks Romeo knows what's going on and  he's going to come rescue her leading them to run away with each other. This soliloquy is foreshadowing the end of the play because she's saying that Romeo might think she's dead even if he knows the plan, which little does she know, he doesn't so he will think she's dead. 

  I like this soliloquy because it's easy to understand and translate. It's probably one of the only soliloquies in the entire play that doesn't have a lot of double meanings, weird words, metaphors, or anything else that can confuse the mind. She's saying exactly what most people would be thinking, just in a slightly different context of writing. It's easy to decode and has a good significance to the play because it's the turning point in the play to when everything will go even worse than it was.
