read the excerpt from act ii, scene v of romeo and juliet.friar laurence: these violent delights have violent ends,
and in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
which, as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey
is loathsome in his own deliciousness
and in the taste confounds the appetite:
therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
what do the oxymoron and paradox in this excerpt illustrate about love?
only love has the ability to overcome obstacles. nothing good ever comes from truly loving another. loving with restraint is the key to long-lasting love. true love causes one to lose the ability to reason.

Loving with restraint is the key to long-lasting love.

"Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;"

As the whole play portrays apassionate love tends to not last, that is why he states that love should be meant to last, then it shouls be rationed.

"how to" tells us that it will explain how to, which means to inform

imparadis't in one anothers arms  

the happier eden, shall enjoy their fill  

of bliss on bliss, while i to hell am thrust,  

where neither joy nor love, but fierce desire,  

among our other torments not the least,  

still unfulfill'd with pain of longing pines;  

yet let me not forget what i have gain'd  

from their own mouths; all is not theirs it seems:  

one fatal tree there stands of knowledge call'd,  

forbidden them to taste: knowledge forbidd'n?  

suspicious, reasonless. why should their lord  

envie them that? can it be sin to know,
