Which excerpt from act v, scene iii of romeo and juliet best reflects the play’s overall theme?

a. lady capulet: o me! this sight of death is as a bell,
that warns my old age to a sepulchre.

b. prince: see what a scourge is laid upon your hate,
that heaven finds means to kill your joys with love; .

c. romeo: hold, take this letter; early in the morning
see thou deliver it to my lord and father.

d. montague: o thou untaught! what manners is in this,
to press before thy father to a grave?

b. Prince: See what a scourge is laid upon your hate,/That heaven finds means to kill your joys with love;.

The play Romeo and Juliet is all about how the family grudge drives the young lovers to desperation and they take their lives. The prologue specifically introduces this theme in the first 14 lines of the play. The audience is continually reminded of this throughout the play. Finally after the teenagers have died, the families realize all the destruction their hatred has wrought. The Prince outlines this in his lines pointing out that the hate the families have for each other is what ultimately lead to Romeo and Juliet's deaths.
