Death is one of the most common themes in Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare portrays death in a very unusual manner, with a total of six people dying of unnatural causes in the span of just a few days. He depicts it in a very patterned way, conveying the messege that life will ultimately end. Public deaths, such as those of Mercutio and Tybalt, along with private deaths, such as those of Romeo, Juliet, and Lady Montague are shown, and, interestingly enough, their manner of death reflects their personality. He also suggests that death is a form of punishment for sin.
Any suggestions, comments, etc.? I'm going in to edit it with my teacher tomorrow (it's due Monday), but I'd really like to have it as best as I can before I go in

Your last sentence of your intro should be lead into the next paragraph by summing up your essay

It sounds good. You have clearly set the tone of your essays as exploring death as a coincidence of their lives. As the first paragraph is your introduction, you might make your last sentence something like, "I will explore these various facets of death in the following paragraphs", or something of that nature, you get the idea. Good Work

You may want to add that Paris was killed publicly too, when he was murdered by Romeo at the death tomb. And your paragraph ends pretty unexpectedly, you may want to finish it more slowly and lead it on to the next paragraph.
