Question

Which lines in this excerpt from act V of Romeo and Juliet show that the Capulet-Montague feud has brought tragedy not only to the two families but also to other families in Verona?

PRINCE ESCALUS: This letter doth make good the friar's words,
Their course of love, the tidings of her death:
And here he writes that he did buy a poison
Of a poor 'pothecary, and therewithal
Came to this vault to die, and lie with Juliet.
Where be these enemies? Capulet! Montague!
See, what a scourge is laid upon your hate,
That heaven finds means to kill your joys with love.
And I for winking at your discords too
Have lost a brace of kinsmen: all are punish'd.

CAPULET: O brother Montague, give me thy hand:
This is my daughter's jointure, for no more
Can I demand.

MONTAGUE: But I can give thee more:
For I will raise her statue in pure gold;
That while Verona by that name is known,
There shall no figure at such rate be set
As that of true and faithful Juliet.

CAPULET: As rich shall Romeo's by his lady's lie;
Poor sacrifices of our enmity!

PRINCE ESCALUS: A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.

The lines that show that tragedy was brought not only to the two families but also to other families in Verona are: And I for winking at your discords too
Have lost a brace of kinsmen: all are punish'd. The word that involves the other families in Verona is the pronoun "all", showing that the tragedy also departed upon them.
