For Venus smiles not in a house of tears. |
Now, sir, her father counts it dangerous |
That she doth give her sorrow so much sway, |
And in his wisdom hastes our marriage, |
To stop the inundation of her tears; |
Which, too much minded by herself alone, |
May be put from her by society: |
Now do you know the reason of this haste. |
FRIAR LAURENCE: |
PARIS: |
Happily met, my lady and my wife! |
JULIET: |
That may be, sir, when I may be a wife. |
PARIS: |
That may be must be, love, on Thursday next. |
JULIET: |
What must be shall be. |
FRIAR LAURENCE: |
That's a certain text. |
PARIS: |
Come you to make confession to this father? |
JULIET: |
To answer that, I should confess to you. |
PARIS: |
Do not deny to him that you love me. |
JULIET: |
I will confess to you that I love him. |
PARIS: |
So will ye, I am sure, that you love me. |
JULIET: |
If I do so, it will be of more price, |
Being spoke behind your back, than to your face. |
PARIS: |
Poor soul, thy face is much abused with tears. |
JULIET: |
The tears have got small victory by that; |
For it was bad enough before their spite. |
PARIS: |
Thou wrong'st it, more than tears, with that report. |
JULIET: |
That is no slander, sir, which is a truth; |
And what I spake, I spake it to my face. |
PARIS: |
Thy face is mine, and thou hast slander'd it. |
JULIET: |
It may be so, for it is not mine own. |
Are you at leisure, holy father, now; |
Or shall I come to you at evening mass? |
FRIAR LAURENCE: |
My leisure serves me, pensive daughter, now. |
My lord, we must entreat the time alone. |
PARIS: |
God shield I should disturb devotion! |
Juliet, on Thursday early will I rouse ye: |
Till then, adieu; and keep this holy kiss. |
JULIET: |
O shut the door! and when thou hast done so, |
Come weep with me; past hope, past cure, past help! |
FRIAR LAURENCE: |
Ah, Juliet, I already know thy grief; |
It strains me past the compass of my wits: |
I hear thou must, and nothing may prorogue it, |
On Thursday next be married to this county. |
JULIET: |
Tell me not, friar, that thou hear'st of this, |
Unless thou tell me how I may prevent it: |
If, in thy wisdom, thou canst give no help, |
Do thou but call my resolution wise, |
And with this knife I'll help it presently. |
God join'd my heart and Romeo's, thou our hands; |
And ere this hand, by thee to Romeo seal'd, |
Shall be the label to another deed, |
Or my true heart with treacherous revolt |
Turn to another, this shall slay them both: |
Therefore, out of thy long-experienced time, |
Give me some present counsel, or, behold, |
'Twixt my extremes and me this bloody knife |
