Here's such a coil! come, what says Romeo?
|
Nurse:
|
Have you got leave to go to shrift to-day?
|
JULIET:
|
I have.
|
Nurse:
|
Then hie you hence to Friar Laurence' cell;
|
There stays a husband to make you a wife:
|
Now comes the wanton blood up in your cheeks,
|
They'll be in scarlet straight at any news.
|
Hie you to church; I must another way,
|
To fetch a ladder, by the which your love
|
Must climb a bird's nest soon when it is dark:
|
I am the drudge and toil in your delight,
|
But you shall bear the burden soon at night.
|
Go; I'll to dinner: hie you to the cell.
|
JULIET:
|
Hie to high fortune! Honest nurse, farewell.
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
So smile the heavens upon this holy act,
|
That after hours with sorrow chide us not!
|
ROMEO:
|
Amen, amen! but come what sorrow can,
|
It cannot countervail the exchange of joy
|
That one short minute gives me in her sight:
|
Do thou but close our hands with holy words,
|
Then love-devouring death do what he dare;
|
It is enough I may but call her mine.
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
These violent delights have violent ends
|
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
|
Which as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey
|
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
|
And in the taste confounds the appetite:
|
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
|
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
|
Here comes the lady: O, so light a foot
|
Will ne'er wear out the everlasting flint:
|
A lover may bestride the gossamer
|
That idles in the wanton summer air,
|
And yet not fall; so light is vanity.
|
JULIET:
|
Good even to my ghostly confessor.
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
Romeo shall thank thee, daughter, for us both.
|
JULIET:
|
As much to him, else is his thanks too much.
|
ROMEO:
|
Ah, Juliet, if the measure of thy joy
|
Be heap'd like mine and that thy skill be more
|
To blazon it, then sweeten with thy breath
|
This neighbour air, and let rich music's tongue
|
Unfold the imagined happiness that both
|
Receive in either by this dear encounter.
|
JULIET:
|
Conceit, more rich in matter than in words,
|
Brags of his substance, not of ornament:
|
They are but beggars that can count their worth;
|
But my true love is grown to such excess
|
I cannot sum up sum of half my wealth.
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
Come, come with me, and we will make short work;
|
For, by your leaves, you shall not stay alone
|
Till holy church incorporate two in one.
|
BENVOLIO:
|
I pray thee, good Mercutio, let's retire:
|
The day is hot, the Capulets abroad,
|
And, if we meet, we shall not scape a brawl;
|
For now, these hot days, is the mad blood stirring.
|
MERCUTIO:
|
Thou art like one of those fellows that when he
|
enters the confines of a tavern claps me his sword
|
upon the table and says 'God send me no need of
|
thee!' and by the operation of the second cup draws
|
it on the drawer, when indeed there is no need.
|
BENVOLIO:
|
Am I like such a fellow?
|
MERCUTIO:
|
Come, come, thou art as hot a Jack in thy mood as
|
any in Italy, and as soon moved to be moody, and as
|
soon moody to be moved.
|
BENVOLIO:
