Question 16 • EN091 Freshman English A

Which line best adds to a threatening mood in Act II, scene ii of Romeo and Juliet?

Answer
A
What’s Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
B
Call me but love, and I’ll be new baptiz’d;
C
Thou know’st the mask of night is on my face,
D
If they do see thee they will murder thee.

Explanation

The line “If they do see thee they will murder thee” directly warns Romeo that the Capulets may kill him, creating a threatening mood. Juliet’s other lines focus on names, love, or the protection of night rather than an explicit danger.
