CAPULET
He shall be endured: What, goodman boy! I say, he shall: go to; Am I the master here, or you? go to. You'll
not endure him! God shall mend my soul! You'll make a mutiny among my guests! You will set cock-a-
hoop! you'll be the man! TYBALT
Why, uncle, 'tis a shame. CAPULET
Go to, go to; You are a saucy boy: is't so, indeed? This trick may chance to scathe you, I know what: You
must contrary me! marry, 'tis time. Well said, my hearts! You are a princox; go: Be quiet, orMore light,
more light! For shame! I'll make you quiet. What, cheerly, my hearts! TYBALT
Patience perforce with wilful choler meeting Makes my flesh tremble in their different greeting. I will withdraw: but
this intrusion shall Now seeming sweet convert to bitter gall.
Exit ROMEO
[To JULIET] If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this: My lips, two
blushing pilgrims, ready stand To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss. JULIET
Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much, Which mannerly devotion shows in this; For saints have
hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss. ROMEO
Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too? JULIET
Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer. ROMEO
O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do; They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair. JULIET
Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake. ROMEO
Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take. Thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged. JULIET
Then have my lips the sin that they have took.
