SC. I.
ROMEO AND JULIET
107
"Romeo is banished": to speak that word, |
Nurse. | Weeping and wailing over Tybalt's corse: Will you go to them? I will bring you thither. |
Jul. | Wash they his wounds with tears:[C 1][E 2] mine shall be spent,130 When theirs are dry, for Romeo's banishment. Take up those cords: poor ropes, you are beguiled, Both you and I, for Romeo is exiled: He made you for a highway to my bed, But I, a maid, die maiden-widowed.[C 2]135 Come, cords;[C 3] come, nurse; I'll to my wedding-bed; And death, not Romeo, take my maidenhead! |
Nurse. | Hie to your chamber: I'll find Romeo To comfort you: I wot well where he is. Hark ye, your Romeo will be here at night:140 I'll to him; he is hid at Laurence' cell. |
Jul. | O, find him! give this ring to my true knight, And bid him come to take his last farewell. |
