Fate
Fate In The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, fate is the leading cause for the unhappy ending. In the dictionary, fate is defined as an event (or course of events) that will inevitably happen in the future. The Prologue points out that Romeo and Juliet have fate against them. ... If he had not met the servant or had refused to go, the deaths of Romeo and Juliet might have been avoided but fate makes the meeting possible. ... It is fate that did not allow the Friar to reach Romeo.
