The tone of the prologue was just an overview of the entire play

Act 2 scene 2 also has the Friar collecting Herbs and talking about how some chemical interactions are combustible.

Explanation:

The tone of the prologue was just an overview of the entire play because It is like an ancient Greek Chorus which was said to be relating information about the play before it even begins.

Act 2 scene 2 also has the Friar collecting Herbs and talking about how some chemical interactions are combustible which is why the prologue in Romeo and Juliet was said to provides important exposition for the audience because the play begins, "in the middle of things"
