Happily met, my lady and my wife.

JULIET

 That may be, sir, when I may be a wife.

PARIS

 That may be, must be, love, on Thursday next. [20]

JULIET

 What must be, shall be.

FRIAR LAURENCE

                That’s a certain text.

PARIS

 Come you to make confession to this father?

JULIET

 To answer that, I should confess to you.

PARIS

 Do not deny to him that you love me.

JULIET

 I will confess to you that I love him. [25]

PARIS

 So will ye, I am sure, that you love me.

JULIET

 If I do so, it will be of more price
 Being spoke behind your back than to your face.

PARIS

 Poor soul, thy face is much abus’d with tears.

JULIET

 The tears bave got small victory by that, [30]
 For it was bad enough before their spite.
