Romeo and Juliet?

Question

What is an example of personification in Act 1 of Romeo and Juliet. I can only find one in Act 2 but it has to be from Act 1 and I know what personification is but i need it from R&J

Answer 1

To personify something, as you know, means to attribute human feelings or actions or personality traits to something non-human. Maybe to an inanimate object such as the sun or moon, maybe to some intangible concept such as love or death or honor or revenge. "Love is sometimes my friend, sometimes my enemy." "Death warns me to think again." "Honor stands beside me." "Revenge whispers in my ear." Those are all examples of personification. Read through Act One, paying special attention to everything that Romeo says. I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.
