Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Read Juliet's line like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 with a stress on the the even numbers!. Like: to BE or NOT to BE!.!.!. Then try the same with the Nurse's lines and you'll see how tounge-tied you get!. Read the Nurse like normal speech!. The only exception is when the Nurse has a line or two in the middle of a monologue (like in Act I when Lady Capulet is talking about Paris)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
