All this I know; and to the marriage
Her nurse is privy: and, if aught in this
Miscarried by my fault, let my old life
Be sacrificed, some hour before his time,
Unto the rigour of severest law.

Prince. We still have known thee for a holy

man.

Where's Romeo's man? what can he

say

in this ?
Bal. I brought my master news of Juliet's death;
And then in post he came from Mantua
To this same place, to this same monument.
This letter he early bid me give his father,
And threaten'd me with death, going in the vault,
If I departed not and left him there.

Prince. Give me the letter ; I will look on it.
Where is the county's page, that raised the watch ?
Sirrah, what made your master in this place?
Page. He came with flowers to strew his lady's

grave;
And bid me stand aloof, and so I did :
Anon comes one with light to ope the tomb;
And by and by my master drew on him ;
And then I ran away to call the watch.
Prince. This letter doth make good the friar's

words,
Their course of love, the tidings of her death :
And here he writes that he did buy a poison
Of a poor 'pothecary, and therewithal
Came to this vault to die, and lie with Juliet.
Where be these enemies? Capulet! Montague !
See, what a scourge is laid upon your hate,
That heaven finds means to kill your joys with

love.
And I for winking at your discords too
Have lost a brace of kinsmen: all are punish’d.
Cap. O brother Montague, give me thy hand :

290 300

This is my daughter's jointure, for no more
Can I demand.
Mon.

But I can give thee more :
For I will raise her statue in pure gold ;
That while Verona by that name is known,
There shall no figure at such rate be set
As that of true and faithful Juliet.

Cap. As rich shall Romeo's by his lady's lie;
Poor sacrifices of our enmity!
Prince. A glooming peace this morning with it

brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head :
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;

Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
