“Juliet’s Ballad” (corrido).

1. Create a song title.

2. Write a quick verse that tells the tale of Juliet from beginning to end.

3. use act three vocabulary words in your song (at least 5).

(The following questions you should think about, while writing. DO NOT ANSWER!)

3. What idea will you emphasize? Personality and choices, family pressure, passionate love, passionate hate, fate, free will?

4. What is the significance of the title?

I believe that the first picture is showing how the servants were starting the street fight.The second picture is showing how at last there was peace between both families."Draw, if you be men, Gregory remember thy swashing blow. they fight". When romeo & Juliet die everything is finally peaceful & everybody comes back together. I believe those are the  meanings & differences between the ancient pictures because i guess that's what really happened in the story.

   Romeo and Juliet's family's hate each other even their worker's.it is hard for Romeo and Juliet.
   Romeo and Juliet's workers were trying to kill each other whatever was in their hand .Romeo
   and Juliet's love for each other can't be in peace because all of this hate cause them their death.
