Read the following selection from act iii of romeo and juliet. what conflict does the line in bold most closely represent?

prince: romeo slew him, he slew mercutio; *who now the price of his dear blood doth owe? *(this is in bold)

montague: not romeo, prince, he was mercutio's friend; his fault concludes but what the law should end, the life of tybalt.

prince: and for that offence immediately we do exile him hence: i have an interest in your hate's proceeding, my blood for your rude brawls doth lie a-bleeding; but i'll amerce you with so strong a fine that you shall all repent the loss of mine: i will be deaf to pleading and excuses; nor tears nor prayers shall purchase out abuses: therefore use none: let romeo hence in haste, else, when he's found, that hour is his last. bear hence this body and attend our will: mercy but murders, pardoning those that kill.
