The answer is irony. This part refers to the death of Juliet. In this scene, Juliet was found dead. Many had believed that she was dead. However, Juliet was not dead. She drank some a potion that could keep her temporary dead. She and Romeo planned this scene so she can escape her marriage from Paris,
