Romeo and Juliet, is a story of two young lovers, whose love was destined for destruction.
They did not imagine that their love would lead to the tragedies that it did. These two

The Nurse was one of these characters who betrayed the young couple. The Nurse who
was also Juliet's friend turned against her at a very crucial time. The Nurse told Juliet that
it would be best if she married Paris. "I...
