ROMEO: |
Peace, peace, Mercutio, peace! |
Thou talk'st of nothing. |
MERCUTIO: |
True, I talk of dreams, |
Which are the children of an idle brain, |
Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, |
Which is as thin of substance as the air |
And more inconstant than the wind, who wooes |
Even now the frozen bosom of the north, |
And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, |
Turning his face to the dew-dropping south. |
BENVOLIO: |
This wind, you talk of, blows us from ourselves; |
Supper is done, and we shall come too late. |
ROMEO: |
I fear, too early: for my mind misgives |
Some consequence yet hanging in the stars |
Shall bitterly begin his fearful date |
With this night's revels and expire the term |
Of a despised life closed in my breast |
By some vile forfeit of untimely death. |
But He, that hath the steerage of my course, |
Direct my sail! On, lusty gentlemen. |
BENVOLIO: |
Strike, drum. |
First Servant: |
Where's Potpan, that he helps not to take away? He |
shift a trencher? he scrape a trencher! |
Second Servant: |
When good manners shall lie all in one or two men's |
hands and they unwashed too, 'tis a foul thing. |
First Servant: |
Away with the joint-stools, remove the |
court-cupboard, look to the plate. Good thou, save |
me a piece of marchpane; and, as thou lovest me, let |
the porter let in Susan Grindstone and Nell. |
Antony, and Potpan! |
Second Servant: |
Ay, boy, ready. |
First Servant: |
You are looked for and called for, asked for and |
sought for, in the great chamber. |
Second Servant: |
We cannot be here and there too. Cheerly, boys; be |
brisk awhile, and the longer liver take all. |
CAPULET: |
Welcome, gentlemen! ladies that have their toes |
Unplagued with corns will have a bout with you. |
Ah ha, my mistresses! which of you all |
Will now deny to dance? she that makes dainty, |
She, I'll swear, hath corns; am I come near ye now? |
Welcome, gentlemen! I have seen the day |
That I have worn a visor and could tell |
A whispering tale in a fair lady's ear, |
Such as would please: 'tis gone, 'tis gone, 'tis gone: |
You are welcome, gentlemen! come, musicians, play. |
A hall, a hall! give room! and foot it, girls. |
More light, you knaves; and turn the tables up, |
And quench the fire, the room is grown too hot. |
Ah, sirrah, this unlook'd-for sport comes well. |
Nay, sit, nay, sit, good cousin Capulet; |
For you and I are past our dancing days: |
How long is't now since last yourself and I |
Were in a mask? |
Second Capulet: |
By'r lady, thirty years. |
CAPULET: |
What, man! 'tis not so much, 'tis not so much: |
'Tis since the nuptials of Lucentio, |
Come pentecost as quickly as it will, |
Some five and twenty years; and then we mask'd. |
Second Capulet: |
'Tis more, 'tis more, his son is elder, sir; |
His son is thirty. |
CAPULET: |
Will you tell me that? |
His son was but a ward two years ago. |
ROMEO: |
Servant: |
I know not, sir. |
