  4. Romeo   2   But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?   3   It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.   4   Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,   5   Who is already sick and pale with grief,   6   That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she.   7   Be not her maid, since she is envious;   8   Her vestal livery is but sick and green   9   And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.  10   It is my lady, O, it is my love!  11   O, that she knew she were!  12   She speaks yet she says nothing; what of that?  13   Her eye discourses; I will answer it.  14   I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks.  15   Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,  16   Having some business, do entreat her eyes  17   To twinkle in their spheres till they return.  18   What if her eyes were there, they in her head?  19   The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,  20   As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven  21   Would through the airy region stream so bright  22   That birds would sing and think it were not night.  23   See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!  24   O, that I were a glove upon that hand,  25   That I might touch that cheek!

  5. Juliet’s speech • Does Juliet feel the same as Romeo? Find a quotation to support your answer. • What problem does she foresee? What solution does she wish for? Use a quote to support your answer. • Do you agree with Juliet when she questions the importance of a name? • “What’s in a name?” • JULIET 33   O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?  34   Deny thy father and refuse thy name;  35   Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,  36   And I'll no longer be a Capulet. • ROMEO [Aside.]  37   Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this? • JULIET 38   'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;  39   Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.  40   What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,  41   Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part  42   Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!  43   What's in a name? That which we call a rose  44   By any other name would smell as sweet;  45   So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,  46   Retain that dear perfection which he owes  47   Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,  48   And for that name which is no part of thee  49   Take all myself.

  6. Wow, what a truly amazing night I have had! As I saw Juliet leaning out of her window, my heart began to beat faster and I felt as though she could outshine even the brightest star in the sky! She was radiant. She leaned forward elegantly and rested her delicate hand on a gloved hand. O! I wished I could have been a glove upon that hand! Yet, being unsure of myself, I hid behind the gate and waited as I listened to her melodic voice in secret. I wanted desperately to talk to her and to hold her. What I heard gave me goose pimples and made my heart leap for joy. To my amazement, she confessed that she loved me, even though she seemed worried about my name. I understood her feelings immediately, as I too realise that it will be forbidden for a Capulet, as she is, to be with a Montague like me. Yet, I must be with Juliet. I must be bold enough to take that chance and risk the consequences. What type of text is this? Wow, what a truly amazing night I have had!
