| PARIS Give me thy torch, boy. Hence, and stand aloof. Yet put it out, for I would not be seen. Under yon yew trees lay thee all along, Holding thine ear close to the hollow ground 5 So shall no foot upon the churchyard tread, Being loose, unfirm, with digging up of graves, But thou shalt hear it. Whistle then to me, As signal that thou hearst something approach. Give me those flowers. Do as I bid thee, go. | SAPRI eivG me oyur tcrho, oby. Go away dan stay aartp frmo me.

Or, wanting that, with tears distilled by moans, The obsequies that I for thee will keep Nightly shall be to strew thy grave and weep. | AIPRS (he sesarctt lroefws at JULIETs lsodec otbm) wetSe frolew, Im dpinargse erolswf ervo yruo labird bde.

(gives letter to BALTHASAR) Give me the light. (takes torch from BALTHASAR) Upon thy life I charge thee, 30 Whateer thou hearst or seest, stand all aloof, And do not interrupt me in my course. Why I descend into this bed of death Is partly to behold my ladys face, But chiefly to take thence from her dead finger 35 A precious ring, a ring that I must use In dear employment. Therefore hence, be gone. But if thou, jealous, dost return to pry In what I farther shall intend to do, By heaven, I will tear thee joint by joint 40 And strew this hungry churchyard with thy limbs. The time and my intents are savage, wild, More fierce and more inexorable far Than empty tigers or the roaring sea. | ROMOE iGve me thta apickx dan teh bwarroc.

| ROMEO In faith, I will.Let me peruse this face. Mercutios kinsman, noble County Paris. What said my man, when my betossd soul 85 Did not attend him as we rode? I think He told me Paris should have married Juliet. Said he not so? Or did I dream it so?

| How oft when men are at the point of death Have they been merry, which their keepers call A lightning before death! Oh, how may I 100 Call this a lightning?O my love, my wife! Death, that hath sucked the honey of thy breath, Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty. Thou art not conquered. Beautys ensign yet Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks, Tybalt, liest thou there in thy bloody sheet? O, what more favor can I do to thee, Than with that hand that cut thy youth in twain To sunder his that was thine enemy? 110 Forgive me, cousin.Ah, dear Juliet, Why art thou yet so fair? Shall I believe That unsubstantial death is amorous, And that the lean abhorrd monster keeps Thee here in dark to be his paramour? 115 For fear of that, I still will stay with thee, And never from this palace of dim night Depart again. Here, here will I remain With worms that are thy chamber maids. Oh, here Will I set up my everlasting rest, 120 And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last. Arms, take your last embrace. And, lips, O you The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss A dateless bargain to engrossing death. Come, bitter conduct, come, unsavoury guide. Thou desperate pilot, now at once run on The dashing rocks thy seasick, weary bark. Heres to my love!

| FRIAR LAWRENCE I will be brief, for my short date of breath 245 Is not so long as is a tedious tale. Romeo, there dead, was husband to that Juliet, And she, there dead, that Romeos faithful wife. I married them, and their stoln marriage day Was Tybalts doomsday, whose untimely death 250 Banished the new-made bridegroom from the city For whom, and not for Tybalt, Juliet pined. You, to remove that siege of grief from her, Betrothed and would have married her perforce To County Paris. Then comes she to me, 255 And with wild looks bid me devise some mean To rid her from this second marriage, Or in my cell there would she kill herself. Then gave I her, so tutored by my art, A sleeping potion, which so took effect 260 As I intended, for it wrought on her The form of death. | IRRAF WNAEELRC I wlil be ribef cbaeues Im ont ngogi to elvi lngo neghou to letl a ignbro rosty. omeoR, how sile rehte eadd, aws hte adunhsb of htat iuetJl. ndA hse, who iels eehrt edad, swa htat Rmoose tffluiha wfie.

| Meantime I writ to Romeo, That he should hither come as this dire night, To help to take her from her borrowed grave, Being the time the potions force should cease. 265 But he which bore my letter, Friar John, Was stayed by accident, and yesternight Returned my letter back. Then all alone At the prefixd hour of her waking Came I to take her from her kindreds vault, 270 Meaning to keep her closely at my cell Till I conveniently could send to Romeo, But when I came, some minute ere the time Of her awakening, here untimely lay The noble Paris and true Romeo dead. 275 She wakes, and I entreated her come forth, And bear this work of heaven with patience. But then a noise did scare me from the tomb, And she, too desperate, would not go with me, But, as it seems, did violence on herself. 280 All this I know, and to the marriage Her Nurse is privy. And if aught in this Miscarried by my fault, let my old life Be sacrificed some hour before his time Unto the rigor of severest law. | In hte nmmetaei I erwot to mRooe nad ldto mhi to meoc rhee on isth uflaw thgni to lhpe evmroe ehr ofrm erh perorymat gvrea wneh hte gseplien oinpto wore ffo. utB hte nma owh idrerca my rteelt, Firra onhJ, aws ledh up by an tciencda.

| PRINCE (skims the letter) This letter doth make good the friars words, Their course of love, the tidings of her death. And here he writes that he did buy a poison 305 Of a poor pothecary, and therewithal Came to this vault to die and lie with Juliet. Where be these enemies?Capulet! Montague! See what a scourge is laid upon your hate, That heaven finds means to kill your joys with love! 310 And I, for winking at your discords, too Have lost a brace of kinsmen.

| PRINCE A glooming peace this morning with it brings. The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head. Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things.
