in a grave,
To lay one in, another out to have.

FRIAR LAWRENCE
I didn’t tell you to get rid of one love and replace her
with another.

ROMEO
I pray thee, chide not. Her I love now
Doth grace for grace and love for love allow.
The other did not so.
|
ROMEO

returns my love. The other girl did not love me.

FRIAR LAWRENCE
Oh, she knew well
Thy love did read by rote, that could not spell.
But come, young waverer, come, go with me,
In one respect I’ll thy assistant be,
For this alliance may so happy prove
To turn your households' rancor to pure love.
|
FRIAR LAWRENCE
Oh, she knew very well that you were acting like you were in love
without really knowing what love means. But come on, inconsistent
young man, come with me. I’ll help you with your secret
wedding. This marriage may be lucky enough to turn the hatred
between your families into pure love.

ROMEO
Oh, let us hence. I stand on sudden haste.
|
ROMEO
Let’s get out of here. I’m in a rush.
|
|
|
FRIAR LAWRENCE
Wisely and slow. They stumble that run fast.
|
FRIAR LAWRENCE
Go wisely and slowly. Those who rush stumble and fall.
|
|
Exeunt |
They exit. |
