ACT III

NURSE.

[Within.] Let me come in, and you shall know my errand.

I come from Lady Juliet.

FRIAR LAWRENCE.

Welcome then.

Enter Nurse.

NURSE.

O holy Friar, O, tell me, holy Friar,

Where is my lady’s lord, where’s Romeo?

FRIAR LAWRENCE.

There on the ground, with his own tears made drunk.

NURSE.

O, he is even in my mistress’ case.

Just in her case! O woeful sympathy!

Piteous predicament. Even so lies she,

Blubbering and weeping, weeping and blubbering.

Stand up, stand up; stand, and you be a man.

For Juliet’s sake, for her sake, rise and stand.

Why should you fall into so deep an O?

ROMEO.
