Which statement best conveys the central idea of this excerpt from act iv of romeo and juliet?

friar laurnce: hold, daughter: i do spy a kind of hope,
which craves as desperate an execution.
as that is desperate which we would prevent.
if, rather than to marry county paris,
thou hast the strength of will to slay thyself,
then is it likely thou wilt undertake
a thing like death to chide away this shame,
that copest with death himself to scape from it:
and, if thou darest, i'll give thee remedy.

juliet: o, bid me leap, rather than marry paris,
from off the battlements of yonder tower;
or walk in thievish ways; or bid me lurk
where serpents are; chain me with roaring bears;
or shut me nightly in a charnel-house,
o'er-cover'd quite with dead men's rattling bones,
with reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls;
or bid me go into a new-made grave
and hide me with a dead man in his shroud;
things that, to hear them told, have made me tremble;
and i will do it without fear or doubt,
to live an unstain'd wife to my sweet love.

a) juliet is willing to trust friar laurence to reunite her with romeo.
b) juliet wants to defy her family by killing herself.
c) juliet is willing to face her worst fears to be with romeo.
d) juliet believes death is the only way to remain faithful to romeo.

In this excerpt from "dover beach" by matthew arnold, which two lines or sets of lines suggest that the speaker has undergone a loss of faith? the sea of faith was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled. but now i only hear its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar, retreating, to the breath of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear and naked shingles of the world. ah, love, let us be true to one another! for the world, which seems to lie before us like a land of dreams, so various, so beautiful, so new, hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light, nor certitude, nor peace, nor for pain; and we are here as on a darkling plain swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, where ignorant armies clash by night.
