Explanation:

William Shakespeare's Romeo and Ju li et deals with the illegal love of the two protagonists amidst their feuding families. Though at first unaware of their families' hatred for each other, they still went forward with their love and even got married, but tragedy led them to their own separate deaths.

1. A pox is a common way of cursing at someone who did things wrong. Chiding is an act of reprimanding or scolding someone for the mistake committed. So, the sentence may well mean "curse you for your hateful scolding".

2. Considering the play from which the given themes and sentences are based on, one theme that the play does not deal in is that "good intentions always yield good results". In fact, that is quite the opposite. Even with good intentions, Romeo still suffers.

3. The downfall of the hero in a tragic story is his own character's weak point, which in this case, is his unfailing love for Ju li et.

the contrast between a clear and understood meaning is that the clear meaning of a poem is that the detail is exactly defined. nothing is left to (understanding/ explanation). an understood meaning is a suggested meaning. kabir's poetry is both clear and understood in that it can be understood/explained on different levels. the clear meaning leaves nothing to (understanding/ explanation) while the understood meaning leaves lots open to (understanding/ explanation). an example of this is found in the poem "rumi and the (related to religion or the soul) lover".
