In Act III, scene 5, Juliet says to Romeo: More light and light--more dark and dark our woes.

What could this mean?

• She is light as a feather but dark in her sad heart

• The sun is rising (light), so she feels dark (sad) that Romeo has to leave before her mom sees him in her room.

• She wants more light (happiness) to get rid of her dark sadness.

• The darker it gets the lighter she feels.
