Romeo! Humerus, madman, passion, lover! I conjure thee by Rosaline’s bright eyes,By her high forehead and her scarlet lip,By her fine foot, straight leg, and quivering thigh.
Can I go forward when my heart is here?
Romeo, my cousin Romeo! Romeo!
Romeo jumps the wall into the Capulet garden to try to find Juliet.

Amen, amen. But come what sorrow can,It cannot countervail the exchange of joyThat one short minute gives me in her sight.
Ah, Juliet, if the measure of thy joyBe heaped like mine? But my true love is grown to such excessI cannot sum up sum of half my wealth.
So smile the heavens upon this holy actThat after-hours with sorrow chide us not.
