In the play Romeo and Juliet, Friar Lawrence is one of the characters with an incredible character. Friar Lawrence character is shown as trustworthy, friendly, and an useful man.
The first characteristic of Friar Lawrence’s character is him being honest and trustworthy. When talking with Romeo Friar Lawrence states “But come, young waverer, come, go with me. In one respect I’ll thy assistant be” (A.2.3.96-97). By informing this to Romeo Friar Lawrence is informing him that he can be trusted to wed him to Juliet.
Also Romeo and Juliet think he will keep their marriage a trick, that why they trust him. Friar Lawrence could have informed both the Montague’s and the Capulet’s that their children are getting wed to each other. Instead Friar had actually kept his word, and not saying anything due to the fact that he believed maybe the 2 households would end up being more detailed. “For this alliance may so happy show to turn your household’s rancor to pure love”(A.
2.3.98-99). Everyone trusts Friar with their secretes, by admitting to him”. This is another way Shakespeare reveals that Friar is very relied on.
Friar Lawrence is also a friendly man. He is friendly because he cares about Romeo and Juliet’s problems. He is a friend to Romeo because he talks to him daily. In one conversation with Romeo Friar says “I’ll give thee armor to keep off that word, adversity’s sweet milk. Philosophy, to comfort thee, though art banished” (A.3.3.57-59). This shows that Friar Lawrence is a friend because he tries to comfort Romeo.
He also says he will protect him. By comforting and protecting Romeo Friar shows the quality of a good friend.
Friar is also a helpful man when Romeo comes to Friar in a desperate need to marry; he helps him by marrying Romeo to Juliet. “Wisely and slow, they stumble that run fast”. Friar Lawrence attempts to tell Romeo to take his decision carefully. Also when Juliet had no one else was left to save Juliet form getting married to Paris. Friar Lawrence was the one who helped Juliet, when she comes to see him, by making a scheme to fake her death so she will not need to marry Paris.
