Paris, who has gone to Juliet’s tomb to scatter flowers in respect, sees Romeo arrive. Romeo’s servant carries a light and tools in order to open the door of the tomb. Paris, though an aside and emotive language, is revealed to believe that Romeo wishes to desecrate the deceased, so he approaches and challenges him, declaring, “this is that banished haughty Montague, that murdered my love’s cousin, with which grief, it is supposed the fair creature died. And here is come to do some villainous shame to the dead bodies. I will apprehend him.”
