Romeo begins in straightforward iambic pentameter, with stresses regularly punctuating every other syllable. As light appears at Juliet's window above, Romeo begins his metaphoric comparison of Juliet to the sunrise.
Gotha (German: [ËÉ¡oËtaË]) is the fifth-largest city in Thuringia, Germany, located 20 kilometres (12 miles) west of Erfurt and 25 km (16 miles) east of Eisenach with a population of 44,000.
After the sacking of Rome, a group of Goths moved to Gaul (in modern-day France) and Iberia and formed the Visigothic Kingdom. This kingdom would eventually incorporate Catholic Christianity, Roman artistic traditions and other aspects of Roman culture. The last Gothic kingdom fell to the Moors in A.D. 711.
