Romeo: ‘For here lies Juliet, and her beauty makes this vault a feasting presence full of light.’ 5. Romeo: ‘O my love, my wife, Death, that hath suck’d the honey of thy breath, Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty’ • Romeo: ‘Come bitter conduct, come unsavoury guide! Thou desperate pilot, now at once run on the dashing rocks thy seasick weary bark! Here’s to my love! O true apothecary!’

JULIET Go, get thee hence, for I will not away. Exit FRIAR LAURENCE JULIETWhat's here? a cup, closed in my true love's hand? Poison, I see, hath been his timeless end: O churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop To help me after? I will kiss thy lips; Haply some poison yet doth hang on them, To make die with a restorative. Kisses him Thy lips are warm. FIRST WATCHMAN[Within] Lead, boy: which way?
