When the devout religion of mine eye [90]
Maintains such falsehood, then turn tears to fire,
And these who, often drown’d, could never die,
Transparent heretics, be burnt for liars.
One fairer than my love! The all-seeing sun
Ne’er saw her match since first the world begun. [95]
BENVOLIO
Tut, you saw her fair, none else being by:
Herself pois’d with herself in either eye.
But in that crystal scales let there be weigh’d
Your lady’s love against some other maid
That I will show you shining at this feast, [100]
And she shall scant show well that now seems best.
ROMEO
I’ll go along, no such sight to be shown,
But to rejoice in splendour of mine own.
(Exeunt.)
Scene III IT
Enter Lady Capulet and Nurse.
LADY CAPULET
Nurse, where’s my daughter? Call her forth to me.
NURSE
Now by my maidenhead at twelve year old,
I bade her come. What, lamb. What, ladybird.
God forbid. Where’s this girl? What, Juliet!
Enter Juliet.
JULIET
How now, who calls?
NURSE
Your mother. [5]
