Read the excerpt from Act IV, scene iv of Romeo and Juliet.

Capulet: Good faith! 'tis day:

The county will be here with music straight,

For so he said he would. [Music within.] I hear him near.

Nurse! Wife! what, * *! What, nurse, I say!

Re-enter Nurse.

Go waken Juliet, go and trim her up;

I'll go and chat with Paris. Hie, make haste,

Make haste; the bridegroom he is come already:

Make haste, I say. [Exeunt.]

    Answer: d)

    Explanation: In the excerpt from Act IV, Scene IV, of "Romeo and Juliet", by William Shakespeare, this scene is an example of dramatic irony to create suspense since the audience knows that - the nurse will be unable to rouse Juliet. Dramatic irony is when the audience knows something that the characters don't know. Juliet has drunk the potion that Friar Laurence gave her to make her appear dead, only to recover after some hours. For all the characters Juliet is dead, and the nurse cannot wake her.
