Guess what...

and Juliet lived. If anyone knows it or knows where I could find information to help me I would really appreciate
it. Thanks so much!! <<<

Candy, you will never believe this, but another student
named Melissa Riebel just asked this exact same question.
What a coincidence, huh?

Now, my thought is that just maybe, you and Melissa could
combine forces on this assignment, and the two of you could
see what you have come up with so far. That way, I would not
even have to provide you with the correct response, which is
so very easy, since all you have to do is notice the clues that
are in the play (for example, the plague), or read the introductory
notes to any good edition of the play. This way, you can
determine the period of the play, you see. Then, the two
of you might check in the library for some background on that
time period.

Boy, Melissa, I really hope that I have helped. Oops,
my goof -- you are "Candy," aren't you?

Aren't you?
