But like a mishav’d and a sullen wench
Thou pouts upon thy fortune and thy love.
Take heed, take heed, for such die miserable.
Go, get thee to thy love as was decreed, [145]
Ascend her chamber - hence, and comfort her.
But look thou stay not till the Watch be set,
For then thou canst not pass to Mantua,
Where thou shalt live till we can find a time
To blaze your marriage, reconcile your friends, [150]
Beg pardon of the Prince and call thee back,
With twenty hundred thousand times more joy
Than thou wentst forth in lamentation.
Go before, Nurse. Commend me to thy lady
And bid her hasten all the house to bed, [155]
Which heavy sorrow makes them apt unto.
Romeo is coming.

NURSE

 O lord, I could have stay’d here all the night
 To hear good counsel. O, what learning is.
 My lord, I’ll tell my lady you will come. [160]

ROMEO

 Do so, and bid my sweet prepare to chide.
                                               Nurse offers to go in and turns again.

NURSE

 Here sir, a ring she bid me give you, sir.
 Hie you, make haste, for it grows very late.

                                                              Exit.

ROMEO

 How well my comfort is reviv’d by this.

FRIAR LAURENCE

 Go hence, good night, and here stands all your state: [165]
 Either be gone before the Watch be set,
 Or by the break of day disguis’d from hence.
 Sojourn in Mantua. I’ll find out your man,
 And he shall signify from time to time
