Question 2 of 10 What does the underlined portion of Friar Lawrence's speech mean?
These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which as they kiss, consume. The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately. Long love doth so.
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
--- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, Act II, scene vi, lines 9-15.
