    This is a good simple record of the events and the days they occurred. Nice work. Perhaps you’ll want to add the conversation between Montague and Paris. This will help explain the situation of marriage – why people marry and how it works.

      Sir, when do I have to deliver the Romeo and Juliet project?

    Nice additions, Milo. I’m particularly impressed with the way you revised some of your earlier entries to add more detail and a more thorough and subtle reference to fate.

        It can be quite short – 1 to 2 minutes would be excellent.
