Go before, nurse: commend me to thy lady;
And bid her hasten all the house to bed,
Which heavy sorrow makes them apt unto:
Romeo is coming.
Nurse O Lord, I could have stay'd here all the night
To hear good counsel: O, what learning is!
My lord, I'll tell my lady you will come.
ROMEO Do so, and bid my sweet prepare to chide.
Nurse Here, sir, a ring she bid me give you, sir:
Hie you, make haste, for it grows very late.
[Exit]
ROMEO How well my comfort is revived by this!
FRIAR LAURENCE Go hence; good night; and here stands all your state:
Either be gone before the watch be set,
Or by the break of day disguised from hence:
Sojourn in Mantua; I'll find out your man,
And he shall signify from time to time
Every good hap to you that chances here:
Give me thy hand; 'tis late: farewell; good night.
ROMEO But that a joy past joy calls out on me,
It were a grief, so brief to part with thee: Farewell.
[Exeunt]
ROMEO AND JULIET
ACT III
SCENE IV A room in Capulet's house.
[Enter CAPULET, LADY CAPULET, and PARIS]
CAPULET Things have fall'n out, sir, so unluckily,
That we have had no time to move our daughter:
Look you, she loved her kinsman Tybalt dearly,
And so did I:--Well, we were born to die.
'Tis very late, she'll not come down to-night:
I promise you, but for your company,
I would have been a-bed an hour ago.
PARIS These times of woe afford no time to woo.
Madam, good night: commend me to your daughter.
