2874.22125Par:The boy giues warning, something doth approach.

2874.32126What cursed foote wanders this was to night,

2874.42127To stay my obsequies and true loues rites?

2874.52128What with a torch, muffle me night a while.

28752129Rom:Giue mee this mattocke, and this wrentching I-

2130ron.

28762131And take these letters early in the morning,

28772132See thou deliuer them to my Lord and Father.

28792133So get thee gone and trouble me no more.

28812134Why I descend into this bed of death,

28822135Is partly to behold my Ladies face,

28832136But chiefly to take from her dead finger,

28842137A precious ring which I must vse

28852138In deare imployment but if thou wilt stay,

28862139Further to prie in what I vndertake,

28882140By heauen Ile teare thee ioynt by ioynt,

28892141And strewe thys hungry churchyard with thy lims.

28902142The time and my intents are sauage, wilde.

28932143Balt:Well, Ile be gone and not trouble you.

28942144Rom:So shalt thou win my fauour, take thou this,

28952145Commend me to my Father, farwell good fellow.

28962146Balt:Yet for all this will I not part from hence.

28982148Rom:Thou detestable maw, thou womb of death,

28992149Gorde with the dearest morsell of the earth.

29002150Thus I enforce thy rotten iawes to ope.

29022151Par:This is that banisht haughtie Mountague,

29032152That murderd my loues cosen, I will apprehend him.

29072153Stop thy vnhallowed toyle vile Mountague.

29082154Can vengeance be pursued further then death?

29092155I doe attach thee as a fellon heere.

29102156The Law condemnes thee, therefore thou must dye.

29112157Rom:I must indeed, and therefore came I hither,

29122158Good youth begone, tempt not a desperate man.
