Between the cries and sobs of Romeo, came a knock on the door.
Who would come here at this time? If it is any person of Verona, I must hide Romeo.
'Let me come in, and you shall know my errand.
I come from Lady Juliet.'
came from the door. Ah! It is the good nurse of the Capulet household. I let the lady in. She brings news from Juliet. Alas, Juliet is also drunk in her own tears, wept for both Tybalt and Romeo. Cries and calls of loss comes from her throat and heart. How I pity the girl... Losing her cousin and now her husband, she must be in pain and distress.
DEAR LORD!! Romeo, free the dagger within your hand! Juliet does not need more tears to be spilt from her eyes by your rash decision of death! Are you a man? Are you a beast? Rid yourself of those womanish tears and wild fury; be happy and content instead! You still have your Juliet and no more revengeful Tybalt to pursue you! The law decreed death as punishment, but you are spared with banishment, you should be thankful!
Sigh... How dark and weary is today... Romeo, you'll ascend Juliet's chamber to comfort her, to woo her, to spend the first and last night as husband and wife. Then, tomorrow, you'll depart for Mantua to stay temporarily until we find a time to beg forgiveness of the Prince and to bring you back for reconciliation of family, friends and Juliet. Now go, good Romeo...
