Friar Who is it? Man Romeo.

Friar How long hath he been there? Man Full half an hour.

O much I fear some ill unthrifty thing.

Romeo, oh pale ! who else, what Paris too? And steep'd in blood? Ah what an unkind hour Is guilty of this lamentable chance ! The Lady stirs.

Juliet Oh comfortable Friar, where is my Lord? I do remember well where I should be : And there I am, where is my Romeo? Friar I hear some noise Lady, come from that nest Of death, contagion and unnatural sleep : A greater power than we can contradict Hath thwarted, our intents, come, come away, Thy husband in thy bosom there lies dead : And Paris too : come I'll dispose of thee, Among a Sisterhood of holy Nuns : Stay not to question, for the watch is coming, Come go good Juliet, I dare no longer stay.

Exit Friar Laurence.
