The downfall may result from outside forces, as in the case of Romeo and Juliet, who are doomed by the external workings of bigotry and fear. The downfall may result from a weakness within the character, which is known as a tragic flaw.

ACT II SCENE I PROLOGUE

Chorus Now old desire doth in his death-bed lie,And young affection gapes to be his heir;That fair for which love groan'd for and would die,With tender Juliet match'd, is now not fair.Now Romeo is beloved and loves again,Alike betwitched by the charm of looks,But to his foe supposed he must complain,And she steal love's sweet bait from fearful hooks:Being held a foe, he may not have accessTo breathe such vows as lovers use to swear;And she as much in love, her means much lessTo meet her new-beloved any where:But passion lends them power, time means, to meetTempering extremities with extreme sweet.

PROLOGUE (TRANSLATION)

The old love affair is dead now, and a new love yearns to take its place. The beautiful Roseline, once so desirable and worth dying for, is now not beautiful when compared to the lovely Juliet. Now, Romeo is loved, and he loves again Both he and Juliet are bewitched by the magic spell of loving looks. He must court so-called enemy. Responding, she must take some mortal risks. Being a foe, he can’t see her to swear the usual lovers’ vows. And she, just as much in love, has even fewer opportunities t meet her newly beloved, anywhere. Passion gives them the motive, and time the means, to meet: their hardships make encounters all the sweeter.
