I read A Midsummer Night's Dream and Other Stories. This book was made by David Foulds. Today, I will tell you about Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.
This story is about two rich Italian families. One was named Montague, the other Capulet. These two families had been quarreling with each other for a long time. The quarrel was so bad and they never went into each other's houses.
One day, Romeo, the son of Montague, went to Capulet's party. He saw very beautiful lady then he fall in love with her. But she is daughter of Capulet, Juliet. They have difficult problems but they got married. After that, Romeo's friend was killed by Juliet's cousin. Next, Romeo killed Juliet's cousin. He must leave the city. Juliet must marry Count Paris. She doesn't want to marry with Paris. She asked priest for his help and advice.
She drinks what Friar Lawrence gives her. It is dangerous medicine. She looks like dead. Romeo hears that Juliet has died. So, Romeo kills himself. After Juliet wake up. She saw Romeo lying dead at Juliet's side. Juliet kills herself, also.
Friar Lawrence sadly told everyone the whole story. And he told them that if they had ended their quarrel long ago, this terrible thing might not have happened. So at last, the two sad old men turned to one another and promised that they would be friends, and at peace for the rest of their lives.
