Read the excerpt from act ii, scene iii of romeo and juliet.

romeo: we met we woo'd and mad eexchange of vow,
i'll tell thee as we pass; but this i pray,
that thou consent to marry us to-day.

friar laurence: holy saint francis! what a change is here;
is rosaline, whom thou didst love so dear, 70
so soon forsaken? young men's love then lies
not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes.
jesu maria! what a deal of brine
hath wash'd thy sallow cheeks for rosaline;
how much salt water thrown away in waste, 75
to eason love, that of it doth not taste!

how does friar laurence support the archetype of mentor in the excerpt?

a-by offering religious teaching and insight
b-by telling a story of his own youth
c-by discouraging a hasty course of action
d-by criticizing a wasteful use of resources

c. by discouraging a hasty course of action.

At the beginning of the play, Romeo is deeply in love with Rosaline, and is hurt when he realizes he cannot be with her. Friar Laurence remembers this, and is therefore surprised to learn that Romeo now claims to love Juliet even more. As a mentor, he wants to prevent the young lovers from acting hastily and making a mistake. He states that Romeo only recently loved Rosaline, and that he has not been with Juliet long enough to really love her. Instead, he believed he is just in love with her because of her beauty.
