In this excerpt from act V of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Romeo encounters Paris when he enters Juliet’s grave. Paris challenges him to a duel, but Romeo pleads to be left alone before he is forced to fight. What does this excerpt reveal about Romeo’s character?

ROMEO: I must indeed; and therefore came I hither.
Good gentle youth, tempt not a desperate man;
Fly hence, and leave me: think upon these gone;
Let them affright thee. I beseech thee, youth,
Put not another sin upon my head,
By urging me to fury: O, be gone!
By heaven, I love thee better than myself;
For I come hither arm'd against myself:
Stay not, be gone; live, and hereafter say,
A madman's mercy bade thee run away.

it reveals that Romeo is a lover not a fighter he tries his best to stay out of way but isn't always successful. He wants to be a peaceful person but feels that he is forced to defend himself in the situation.
It reveals that romeo just wanted to die in peace with his love, Juliet. He did not want to hurt Paris, and was telling him to leave in peace.
