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. |
