Read the excerpt from Act III, scene i of Romeo and Juliet . Tybalt: Boy, this shall not excuse the injuries (40) That thou hast done me; therefore turn and draw Romeo : I do protest I never injur'd thee, But love thee better than thou canst devise, Till thou shalt know the reason of my love: And so, good Capulet, which name I tender (45) As dearly as my own, be satisfied. Why is this an example of dramatic irony?
Answer
A
because Romeo does not really feel kindness toward Tybalt
B
because Tybalt is unaware that Romeo has married a Capulet
C
because Tybalt is usually a peace-loving character
D
because the audience is relieved to know that a dual will not occur
