Explanation:

• "O heavy lightness! serious vanity!" uses oxymorons (contradictory terms) which show Romeo's inner conflict as he tries to reconcile opposing ideas.
• "Mis - shapen chaos of well - seeming forms!" implies a confusion between what appears to be (well - seeming forms) and the reality (chaos), indicating his conflicted perception.
• "Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health!" The combination of contradictory elements (e.g., feather [light] and lead [heavy]) reflects Romeo's emotional turmoil and conflict.

Answer:

O heavy lightness! serious vanity!; Mis - shapen chaos of well - seeming forms!; Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health!
