In romeo and juliet, cite three specific details (clues) the prologue gives about the play.

The prologue of Romeo and Juliet is a very basic summary of the play. It begins with some background information with "ancient grudge breaks to new mutiny". This hints at the feud between the Capulets and Montagues. The prologue speaks of Romeo and Juliet's suicides when it says, "a pair of star-crossed lovers take their life". The audience is also told that their deaths "bury their parents' strife". This clue reveals the end of the "ancient grudge." Other clues from the prologue tell the audience that the setting is Verona and it will take two hours to tell the story.
