How if, when I am laid into the tomb, |
I wake before the time that Romeo |
Come to redeem me? there's a fearful point! |
Shall I not, then, be stifled in the vault, |
To whose foul mouth no healthsome air breathes in, |
And there die strangled ere my Romeo comes? |
Or, if I live, is it not very like, |
The horrible conceit of death and night, |
Together with the terror of the place,-- |
As in a vault, an ancient receptacle, |
Where, for these many hundred years, the bones |
Of all my buried ancestors are packed: |
Where bloody Tybalt, yet but green in earth, |
Lies festering in his shroud; where, as they say, |
At some hours in the night spirits resort;-- |
Alack, alack, is it not like that I, |
So early waking, what with loathsome smells, |
And shrieks like mandrakes' torn out of the earth, |
That living mortals, hearing them, run mad:-- |
O, if I wake, shall I not be distraught, |
Environed with all these hideous fears? |
And madly play with my forefather's joints? |
And pluck the mangled Tybalt from his shroud? |
And, in this rage, with some great kinsman's bone, |
As with a club, dash out my desperate brains? |
O, look! methinks I see my cousin's ghost |
Seeking out Romeo, that did spit his body |
Upon a rapier's point: stay, Tybalt, stay! |
Romeo, I come! this do I drink to thee. |
LADY CAPULET: |
Hold, take these keys, and fetch more spices, nurse. |
Nurse: |
They call for dates and quinces in the pastry. |
CAPULET: |
Come, stir, stir, stir! the second cock hath crow'd, |
The curfew-bell hath rung, 'tis three o'clock: |
Look to the baked meats, good Angelica: |
Spare not for the cost. |
Nurse: |
Go, you cot-quean, go, |
Get you to bed; faith, You'll be sick to-morrow |
For this night's watching. |
CAPULET: |
No, not a whit: what! I have watch'd ere now |
All night for lesser cause, and ne'er been sick. |
LADY CAPULET: |
Ay, you have been a mouse-hunt in your time; |
But I will watch you from such watching now. |
CAPULET: |
A jealous hood, a jealous hood! |
Now, fellow, |
What's there? |
First Servant: |
Things for the cook, sir; but I know not what. |
CAPULET: |
Make haste, make haste. |
Sirrah, fetch drier logs: |
Call Peter, he will show thee where they are. |
Second Servant: |
I have a head, sir, that will find out logs, |
And never trouble Peter for the matter. |
CAPULET: |
Mass, and well said; a merry whoreson, ha! |
Thou shalt be logger-head. Good faith, 'tis day: |
The county will be here with music straight, |
For so he said he would: I hear him near. |
Nurse! Wife! What, ho! What, nurse, I say! |
Go waken Juliet, go and trim her up; |
I'll go and chat with Paris: hie, make haste, |
Make haste; the bridegroom he is come already: |
Make haste, I say. |
Nurse: |
Mistress! what, mistress! Juliet! fast, I warrant her, she: |
Why, lamb! why, lady! fie, you slug-a-bed! |
Why, love, I say! madam! sweet-heart! why, bride! |
What, not a word? you take your pennyworths now; |
Sleep for a week; for the next night, I warrant, |
The County Paris hath set up his rest, |
That you shall rest but little. God forgive me, |
Marry, and amen, how sound is she asleep! |
I must needs wake her. Madam, madam, madam! |
Ay, let the county take you in your bed; |
He'll fright you up, i' faith. Will it not be? |
What, dress'd! and in your clothes! and down again! |
I must needs wake you; Lady! lady! lady! |
Alas, alas! Help, help! my lady's dead! |
O, well-a-day, that ever I was born! |
Some aqua vitae, ho! My lord! my lady! |
