To make me die with a restorative.                    (She kisses him.)
Thy lips are warm!

WAT CHMAN

 (Within.)
                Lead, boy. Which way?

JULIET

 Yea, noise? Then I’ll be brief. O happy dagger.
 This is thy sheath. There rust, and let me die.

                                                             She stabs herself and falls.

                              Enter Page and Watchmen.

PAGE

 This is the place. There, where the torch doth burn. [170]

1 WATCHMAN

 The ground is bloody. Search about the churchyard.
 Go, some of you: whoe’er you find, attach.

                                                              (Exeunt some Watchmen.)
 Pitiful sight! Here lies the County slain
 And Juliet bleeding, warm, and newly dead,
 Who here hath lain this two days buried. [175]
 Go tell the Prince. Run to the Capulets.
 Raise up the Montagues. Some others search.

                                                              (Exeunt some Watchmen.)
 We see the ground whereon these woes do lie,
 But the true ground of all these piteous woes
 We cannot without circumstance descry. [180]

                    Enter (several Watchmen with) Balthasar.

2 WATCHMAN

 Here’s Romeo’s man. We found him in the churchyard.

1 WATCHMAN

 Hold him in safety till the Prince come hither.

                  Enter another Watchman with Friar Laurence.
