As far as I concerned, Friar Lawrence is a peacemaker. One setting of him that he is a Godfather since he is the member in this town doesn't belong to any families, it is essential that any behaviors of him may change the direction of this story. However, there is a foreshadowing when the first time he appears, when Romeo comes to find him, he is inventing the poison from plants. Two terms, Godfather and poison make a contrast and a confliction between the characteristic of this character. In my perspective, Godfather is a peacemaker since he is attempting the use the peaceful way to end up the anger of both sides.
On the one hand, Friar Lawrence wants to end the confliction between two families; On the other hand, Friar Lawrence doesn't want to use the poison to be the key to end it. "Now ere the sun advance his burning eye, The day to cheer and night's dank dew to dry, I must up-fill this osier cage of ours with baleful weeds and precious-juiced flowers." (pg.76) Showing the internal confliction about Friar Lawrence, Friar Lawrence obviously chooses to use the poison to end it all. Despite the poison is not the symbol of peace, I think his goal is direct to the peace. "Revolts from true birth, stumbling from that fair use. Virtue itself turns vice, being misapplied, and vice sometime by action dignifies."(pg.76) reveals that Godfather predicts that if they are confusing with the birth, any good things will turn to be the vice. In conclusion, Friar Lawrence has known how to solve the issue in this place, and he wants to sacrifice for the peace.
Secondly, Godfather though supports Romeo and Juliet be together. Originally, he is hoping the Romeo to have a normal life with Rosaline. Godfather hopes Romeo can be avoided from too much battle and confronts of two families. "The sun not yet thy sighs from heaven clears, the old groans yet ringing in mine ancient ears; Lo here upon thy cheek the stain doth sit of an old tear that is not wash'd off yet."(pg.79) claims that Friar Lawrence is feeling a little bit upset with the decision of Romeo made to find new love. In order to be a peacemaker, Friar Lawrence propels Romeo to insist his love and get married. "For doting, not for loving, pupil mine."(pg.79) views that Friar Lawrence wants to change the perspective of Romeo to Rosaline, he wants to emphasize that he wants to take Romeo away from the topic with Rosaline.
Depicting internal and external of Friar Lawrence, Friar Lawrence has been thinking a lot about the peace in the town and destiny of Romeo. He knows that the way of going to the peace may be coloring his hands with red while he still doesn't want to witness every vice happen around him. To be a peacemaker, the only thing he can do is helping Romeo to find the right way and to use strategies finding the right way for peace and love.
