Which two lines in this excerpt from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet foreshadow the tragic fate of Romeo and Juliet?
FRIAR LAURENCE: So smile the heavens upon this holy act,
That after hours with sorrow chide us not!
ROMEO: Amen. amen! but come what sorrow can,
It cannot countervail the exchange of joy
That one short minute gives me in her sight:
Do thou but close our hands with holy words,
Then love-devouring death do what he dare:
It is enough I may but call her mine.
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 in taste confounds the appetite:
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy
as too slow.
