The next day, Romeo goes to the monastery nearby to see the priest and asks for his help.

The parents regain consciousness after losing their offspring. But its too late. After that, the two families get rid of their feud and found a statue for Romeo and Juliet in the city. Romeo and Juliet is one of William Shakespeares famous dramas. The conflict of it is the love between Romeo and Juliet and the opposition between the two families. It displayed the sharp contradiction between free love and feudal influence. Where the story took place is the city of Verona. It was actually an artistic reappearance of the social reality in British in the end of 16th century, a period of great prosperity ruled by Queen Elizabeth. On one hand, the prince stood for the monarchical power which was widely popular with civilians. On the other hand, the feud between Montague and Capulet stood for the feudal influence extending from Middle Ages which competed with each other. But times are going forward. Offspring of the two powers fell in love with each other at the first time in a party unexpectedly. And families hatred and personal love formed the huge contradiction of drama. Romeo and Juliet all overlooked families hatred and despised that it just was the meaningless surname that interfered with their combination. True love made them brave and fearless. They got married secretly in the monastery and finally didnt stint to commit suicide for love to resist feudal influence and feudal arranged marriage. They composed a most soul-stirring and emotional love song. In the end of the drama, Montague and Capulet eventually buried the hatred due to the two loves death and founded a statue with golden for them in Verona. It means the victory of the idea which the two young dedicated for. They would be the model of people in future. The old Capulet acknowledged in contrition, “The two lovers have fallen pitiful victims to our hatred.” But people who died in the drama were more than the two and families involved were more than the two. Just as the prince of Verona said, “You were all punished.” However, in the same time, Romeos and Juliets death has proved the victory of humanisms new values which they stood for. It also freed the society from meaningless hatred and dispute. In Verona, people would learn a pretty important lesson from Romeo and Juliets tragedy: love is stronger than hatred and it cant be destroyed or conquered even by death!
