Explanation:

Romeo and Juliet is the romantic tragic play that was written between 1591 and 1595 by writer and poet William Shakespeare. In Act III, Romeo has married with Juliet in secret, but their happiness is thwarted when in a fight with Juliet´s cousing, Tybalt, Romeo ends up murdering him. The Prince of Verona has to pass judgement on Romeo, who has been in hiding, and Friar Laurence finds him to inform him that the Prince has decided to forgo the just punishment that Romeo would deserve according to the law, by sentencing him to death, and instead only send him into exile. Romeo responds with tears and complaints, saying death is better than exile, and the friar, disappointed in the young man, and even upset, answers him with: "Oh deadly sin! O rude unthankfulness!... This is dear mercy, and thou seest it not." This answer appears on line 1895 of Act III, scene III, on internet copies of the play.
