Read the excerpt from Act III, scene v of Romeo and Juliet. Romeo: It was the lark, the herald of the morn,
No nightingale: look, love, what envious streaks
Do lace the severing clouds in yonder east:10
Night’s candles are burnt out, and jocund day
Stands tiptoe on the misty mountain tops:
I must be gone and live, or stay and die.
How does Shakespeare use the motif of morning?

to show the certainty of fate
to demonstrate growth and maturity
to highlight the beauty of life
to show the challenges of survival
