Go, Nurse, go with her. We’ll to church tomorrow.
                                                                Exeunt Juliet and Nurse.

LADY CAPULET

 We shall be short in our provision,
 ’Tis now near night.

CAPULET

                Tush I will stir about,
 And all things shall be well, I warrant thee, wife. [40]
 Go thou to Juliet, help to deck up her.
 I’ll not to bed tonight, let me alone.
 I’ll play the housewife for this once. - What ho! -
 They are all forth. Well, I will walk myself
 To County Paris, to prepare up him [45]
 Against tomorrow. My heart is wondrous light
 Since this same wayward girl is so reclaim’d.

                                                           Exeunt.

                               Scene III IT

                                 Enter Juliet and Nurse.

JULIET

 Ay, those attires are best. But, gentle Nurse,
 I pray thee leave me to myself tonight,
 For I have need of many orisons
 To move the heavens to smile upon my state,
 Which, well thou know’st, is cross and full of sin. [5]

                                   Enter Lady Capulet.

LADY CAPULET

 What, are you busy, ho? Need you my help?

JULIET

 No madam, we have cull’d such necessaries
 As are behoveful for our state tomorrow.
 So please you, let me now be left alone
 And let the Nurse this night sit up with you, [10]
