Thou mayst prove false; at lovers' perjuries
|
Then say, Jove laughs. O gentle Romeo,
|
If thou dost love, pronounce it faithfully:
|
Or if thou think'st I am too quickly won,
|
I'll frown and be perverse an say thee nay,
|
So thou wilt woo; but else, not for the world.
|
In truth, fair Montague, I am too fond,
|
And therefore thou mayst think my 'havior light:
|
But trust me, gentleman, I'll prove more true
|
Than those that have more cunning to be strange.
|
I should have been more strange, I must confess,
|
But that thou overheard'st, ere I was ware,
|
My true love's passion: therefore pardon me,
|
And not impute this yielding to light love,
|
Which the dark night hath so discovered.
|
ROMEO:
|
Lady, by yonder blessed moon I swear
|
That tips with silver all these fruit-tree tops--
|
JULIET:
|
O, swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon,
|
That monthly changes in her circled orb,
|
Lest that thy love prove likewise variable.
|
ROMEO:
|
What shall I swear by?
|
JULIET:
|
Do not swear at all;
|
Or, if thou wilt, swear by thy gracious self,
|
Which is the god of my idolatry,
|
And I'll believe thee.
|
ROMEO:
|
If my heart's dear love--
|
JULIET:
|
Well, do not swear: although I joy in thee,
|
I have no joy of this contract to-night:
|
It is too rash, too unadvised, too sudden;
|
Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be
|
Ere one can say 'It lightens.' Sweet, good night!
|
This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath,
|
May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet.
|
Good night, good night! as sweet repose and rest
|
Come to thy heart as that within my breast!
|
ROMEO:
|
O, wilt thou leave me so unsatisfied?
|
JULIET:
|
What satisfaction canst thou have to-night?
|
ROMEO:
|
The exchange of thy love's faithful vow for mine.
|
JULIET:
|
I gave thee mine before thou didst request it:
|
And yet I would it were to give again.
|
ROMEO:
|
Wouldst thou withdraw it? for what purpose, love?
|
JULIET:
|
But to be frank, and give it thee again.
|
And yet I wish but for the thing I have:
|
My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
|
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
|
The more I have, for both are infinite.
|
I hear some noise within; dear love, adieu!
|
Anon, good nurse! Sweet Montague, be true.
|
Stay but a little, I will come again.
|
ROMEO:
|
O blessed, blessed night! I am afeard.
|
Being in night, all this is but a dream,
|
Too flattering-sweet to be substantial.
|
JULIET:
|
Three words, dear Romeo, and good night indeed.
|
If that thy bent of love be honourable,
|
Thy purpose marriage, send me word to-morrow,
|
By one that I'll procure to come to thee,
|
Where and what time thou wilt perform the rite;
|
And all my fortunes at thy foot I'll lay
|
And follow thee my lord throughout the world.
|
Nurse:
|
JULIET:
|
I come, anon.--But if thou mean'st not well,
|
I do beseech thee--
|
Nurse:
|
JULIET:
|
By and by, I come:--
|
To cease thy suit, and leave me to my grief:
|
To-morrow will I send.
