FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
Arise; one knocks; good Romeo, hide thyself.
|
ROMEO:
|
Not I; unless the breath of heartsick groans,
|
Mist-like, infold me from the search of eyes.
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
Hark, how they knock! Who's there? Romeo, arise;
|
Thou wilt be taken. Stay awhile! Stand up;
|
Run to my study. By and by! God's will,
|
What simpleness is this! I come, I come!
|
Who knocks so hard? whence come you? what's your will?
|
Nurse:
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
Welcome, then.
|
Nurse:
|
O holy friar, O, tell me, holy friar,
|
Where is my lady's lord, where's Romeo?
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
There on the ground, with his own tears made drunk.
|
Nurse:
|
O, he is even in my mistress' case,
|
Just in her case! O woful sympathy!
|
Piteous predicament! Even so lies she,
|
Blubbering and weeping, weeping and blubbering.
|
Stand up, stand up; stand, and you be a man:
|
For Juliet's sake, for her sake, rise and stand;
|
Why should you fall into so deep an O?
|
ROMEO:
|
Nurse!
|
Nurse:
|
Ah sir! ah sir! Well, death's the end of all.
|
ROMEO:
|
Spakest thou of Juliet? how is it with her?
|
Doth she not think me an old murderer,
|
Now I have stain'd the childhood of our joy
|
With blood removed but little from her own?
|
Where is she? and how doth she? and what says
|
My conceal'd lady to our cancell'd love?
|
Nurse:
|
O, she says nothing, sir, but weeps and weeps;
|
And now falls on her bed; and then starts up,
|
And Tybalt calls; and then on Romeo cries,
|
And then down falls again.
|
ROMEO:
|
As if that name,
|
Shot from the deadly level of a gun,
|
Did murder her; as that name's cursed hand
|
Murder'd her kinsman. O, tell me, friar, tell me,
|
In what vile part of this anatomy
|
Doth my name lodge? tell me, that I may sack
|
The hateful mansion.
|
FRIAR LAURENCE:
|
Hold thy desperate hand:
|
Art thou a man? thy form cries out thou art:
|
Thy tears are womanish; thy wild acts denote
|
The unreasonable fury of a beast:
|
Unseemly woman in a seeming man!
|
Or ill-beseeming beast in seeming both!
|
Thou hast amazed me: by my holy order,
|
I thought thy disposition better temper'd.
|
Hast thou slain Tybalt? wilt thou slay thyself?
|
And stay thy lady too that lives in thee,
|
By doing damned hate upon thyself?
|
Why rail'st thou on thy birth, the heaven, and earth?
|
Since birth, and heaven, and earth, all three do meet
|
In thee at once; which thou at once wouldst lose.
|
Fie, fie, thou shamest thy shape, thy love, thy wit;
|
Which, like a usurer, abound'st in all,
|
And usest none in that true use indeed
|
Which should bedeck thy shape, thy love, thy wit:
|
Thy noble shape is but a form of wax,
|
Digressing from the valour of a man;
|
Thy dear love sworn but hollow perjury,
|
Killing that love which thou hast vow'd to cherish;
|
Thy wit, that ornament to shape and love,
|
Misshapen in the conduct of them both,
|
Like powder in a skitless soldier's flask,
|
Is set afire by thine own ignorance,
|
And thou dismember'd with thine own defence.
|
What, rouse thee, man! thy Juliet is alive,
|
For whose dear sake thou wast but lately dead;
|
There art thou happy: Tybalt would kill thee,
|
But thou slew'st Tybalt; there are thou happy too:
|
The law that threaten'd death becomes thy friend
|
And turns it to exile; there art thou happy:
|
A pack of blessings lights up upon thy back;
|
