NURSE God in heaven bless her! CAPULETAnd why, my Lady Wisdom? Hold your tongue. Good Prudence, smatter with your gossips, go. NURSE CAPULET O, God ’i’ g’ eden! NURSE CAPULET Peace, you mumbling fool!Utter your gravity o’er a gossip’s bowl, For here we need it not. 185 LADY CAPULET You are too hot. CAPULET God’s bread, it makes me mad.Day, night, hour, tide, time, work, play,Alone, in company, still my care hath been To have her matched. And having now provided 190 A gentleman of noble parentage,Of fair demesnes, youthful, and nobly ligned,Stuffed, as they say, with honorable parts,Proportioned as one’s thought would wish a man—And then to have a wretched puling fool, 195 A whining mammet, in her fortune’s tender,To answer “I’ll not wed. I cannot love.I am too young. I pray you, pardon me.”But, an you will not wed, I’ll pardon you!Graze where you will, you shall not house with me. 200 Look to ’t; think on ’t. I do not use to jest.Thursday is near. Lay hand on heart; advise.An you be mine, I’ll give you to my friend.An you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets,For, by my soul, I’ll ne’er acknowledge thee, 205 Nor what is mine shall never do thee good.Trust to ’t; bethink you. I’ll not be forsworn. He exits. Both the Nurse and Lady Capulet try to intervene, but Lord Capulet is too hot under the collar to stop yelling and listen. He tells Juliet that she's his, and he wants to give her to his friend. (Ick.) He adds that if she doesn't marry Paris, he'll throw her out in the street; she can beg for food or starve. Page 2JULIET FRIAR LAWRENCEO Juliet, I already know thy grief.It strains me past the compass of my wits.I hear thou must, and nothing may prorogue it, On Thursday next be married to this County. 50 JULIETTell me not, friar, that thou hearest of this,Unless thou tell me how I may prevent it.If in thy wisdom thou canst give no help,Do thou but call my resolution wise, And with this knife I’ll help it presently. 55 She shows him her knife. God joined my heart and Romeo’s, thou our hands;And ere this hand, by thee to Romeo’s sealed,Shall be the label to another deed,Or my true heart with treacherous revolt Turn to another, this shall slay them both. 60 Therefore out of thy long-experienced timeGive me some present counsel, or, behold,’Twixt my extremes and me this bloody knifeShall play the umpire, arbitrating thatWhich the commission of thy years and art 65 If what thou speak’st speak not of remedy. Left alone with Friar Lawrence, Juliet...whips out a dagger and tells him she will kill herself if he can't think of a way for her to avoid marrying Paris. Page 3
