Tell me daughter Juliet,
How stands your disposition to be married?”
“It is an honour I dream not of.”

😭

“ The earth hath shallow’d all my hopes but she,
She is the hopeful lady of my earth:”

She is too fair, too wise; wisely too tair, To merit bliss by making me despair:
She hath forsworn to love, and in that vow Do I live dead, that live to tell it now.
Benvolio: Be rul'd by me; forget to think of her.
Romeo: Ol teach me how I should forget to think.”

“Ah me. Sad hours seem so long”

O brawling lovel O loving hate!
O anything, of nothing first created!
O heavy lightness| serious vanityl
Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms!
Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health! Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is!
This love feel ,that feel no love in this.
Dost thou not laugh?

Romeo: Alas, that love, whose view is muffled still, Should without eyes see pathways to his will!
Where shall we dine?— me!-What fray was here?
Yet tell me not, for I have heard it all.
Here's much to do with hate, but more with love:-Why then, O brawling lovel O loving hate!

Benvolio: It was. What sadness lengthens Romeo's hours?
Romeo: Not having that, which, having, makes them short.
Benvolio: In love?

Romeo: Out—
Benvolio: Of love?
Romeo: Out of her favour, where I am in love.
Benvolio: Alas, that love, so gentle in his view, Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof!

The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss , our toil shall strive to mend.”

“Do with their death bury their parents strife.”
“And the continuance of their parents rage.”
“Which but their children’s end , nought could remove, Is now the two hours’ traffic of our stage;
