List two foreshadows from Act III.

Why is their no world without Verona's walls?
What is worse than Tybalt's death?  What does Juliet mean when she says "Romeo is banished - to speak that word is father, mother, Tybalt, Romeo, Juliet all slain all dead. Romeo is banished - there is no end, no limit, measure bound, in that word's death."
