The Tragedie of Romeo and Iuliet.I haue it, and soundly to your Houses.Exit.Rom.
[1495]
This Gentleman the Princes neere Alie,My very Friend hath got his mortall hurtIn my behalfe, my reputation stain'dWith
Tibalts slaunder,
Tybalt that an houre
Hath beene my Cozin: O Sweet
Iuliet,
[1500]
Thy Beauty hath made me Effeminate,And in my temper softned Valours steele.Enter Benuolio.Ben.O
Romeo, Romeo, braue
Mercutio's is dead,
That Gallant spirit hath aspir'd the Cloudes,Which too vntimely here did scorne the earth.Rom.
[1505]
This daies blacke Fate, on mo daies doth depend,This but begins, the wo others must end.Enter Tybalt.Ben.Here comes the Furious
Tybalt backe againe.
Rom.He gon in triumph, and
Mercutio slaine?
Away to heauen respectiue Lenitie,
[1510]
And fire and Fury, be my conduct now.Now
Tybalt take the Villaine backe againe
That late thou gau'st me, for
Mercutios soule
Is but a little way aboue our heads,Staying for thine to keepe him companie:
[1515]
Either thou or I, or both, must goe with him.Tib.Thou wretched Boy that didst consort him here,Shalt with him hence.Rom.This shall determine that.They fight. Tybalt falles.Ben.Romeo, away be gone:
[1520]
The Citizens are vp, and
Tybalt slaine,
Stand not amaz'd, the Prince will Doome thee deathIf thou art taken: hence, be gone, away.Rom.O! I am Fortunes foole.Ben.Why dost thou stay?Exit Romeo.Enter Citizens.Citi.
[1525]
Which way ran he that kild
Mercutio?
Tibalt that Murtherer, which way ran he?
Ben.There lies that
Tybalt.
Citi.Vp sir go with me:I charge thee in the Princes names obey.Enter Prince, old Montague, Capulet, their
Wiues and all.
Prin.
[1530]
Where are the vile beginners of this Fray?Ben.O Noble Prince, I can discouer allThe vnluckie Mannage of this fatall brall:There lies the man slaine by young
Romeo,
That slew thy kinsman braue
Mercutio.
Cap. Wi.
[1535]
Tybalt, my Cozin? O my Brothers Child,
O Prince, O Cozin, Husband, O the blood is spildOf my deare kinsman. Prince as thou art true,For bloud of ours, shed bloud of
Mountague.
O Cozin, Cozin.Prin.
[1540]
Benuolio, who began this Fray?
Ben.Tybalt here slaine, whom
Romeo's hand slay,
Romeo that spoke him faire, bid him bethinke
How nice the Quarrell was, and vrg'd withallYour high displeasure: all this vttered,
[1545]
With gentle breath, calme looke, knees humbly bow'dCould not take truce with the vnruly spleeneOf
Tybalts deafe to peace, but that he Tilts
With Peircing steele at bold
Mercutio's breast,
Who all as hot, turnes deadly point to point,
[1550]
And with a Martiall scorne, with one hand beatesCold death aside, and with the other sendsIt back to
Tybalt, whose dexterity
Retorts it:
Romeo he cries aloud,
Hold Friends, Friends part, and swifter then his tongue,
[1555]
His aged arme beats downe their fatall points,And twixt them rushes, vnderneath whose arme,An enuious thrust from
Tybalt, hit the life
Of stout
Mercutio, and then
Tybalt fled.
But by and by comes backe to
Romeo,
[1560]
Who had but newly entertained Reuenge,And too't they goe like lightning, for ere ICould draw to part them, was stout
Tybalt slaine:
And as he fell, did
Romeo turne and flie:
This is the truth, or let
Benuolio die.
Cap. Wi.
[1565]
He is a kinsman to the
Mountague,
Affection makes him false, he speakes not true:Some twenty of them fought in this blacke strife,And all those twenty could but kill one life.I beg for Iustice, which thou Prince must giue:
[1570]
Romeo slew
Tybalt,
Romeo must not liue.
Prin.Romeo slew him, he slew
Mercutio,
Who now the price of his deare blood doth owe.Cap.Not
Romeo Prince, he was
Mercutios Friend,
His fault concludes, but what the law should end,
[1575]
The life of
Tybalt.
Prin.And for that offence,Immediately we doe exile him hence:I haue an interest in
your hearts proceeding:
My bloud for your rude brawles doth lie a bleeding.
[1580]
But Ile Amerce you with so strong a fine,That you shall all repent the losse of mine.It will be deafe to pleading and excuses,Nor teares, nor prayers shall purchase our abuses.Therefore vse none, let
Romeo hence in hast,
[1585]
Else when he is found, that houre is his last.Beare hence his body, and attend our will:Mercy not Murders, pardoning those that kill.Exeunt.

O curteous
Tybalt honest Gentleman,
[1655]
That euer I should liue to see thee dead.Iul.What storme is this that blowes so contrarie?Is
Romeo slaughtred? and is
Tybalt dead?
My dearest Cozen, and my dearer Lord:Then dreadfull Trumpet sound the generall doome,
[1660]
For who is liuing, if those two are gone?Nur.Tybalt is gone, and
Romeo banished,
Romeo that kil'd him, he is banished.
Iul.O God!Did
Rom'os hand shed
Tybalts blood
[1665]
It did, it did, alas the day, it did.Nur.O Serpent heart, hid with a flowring face.Iul.Did euer Dragon keepe so faire a Caue?Beautifull Tyrant, fiend Angelicall:Rauenous Doue‑feather'd Rauen,

There's no trust, no faith, no honestie in men,All periur'd, all forsworne, all naught, all dissemblers,Ah where's my man? giue me some Aqua‑vitæ?These griefes, these woes, these sorrowes make me old:Shame come to
Romeo.
Iul.
[1685]
Blister'd be thy tongueFor such a wish, he was not borne to shame:Vpon his brow shame is asham'd to sit;For 'tis a throane where Honour may be Crown'dSole Monarch of the vniuersall earth:

O what a beast was I to chide him?Nur.Will you speake well of him,That kil'd your Cozen?Iul.Shall I speake ill of him that is my husband?Ah poore my Lord, what tongue shall smooth thy name,
[1695]
When I thy three houres wife haue mangled it.But wherefore Villaine did'st thou kill my Cozin?That Villaine Cozin would haue kil'd my husband:Backe foolish teares, backe to your natiue spring,Your tributarie drops belong to woe,
[1700]
Which you mistaking offer vp to ioy:My husband liues that
Tibalt would haue slaine,
And
Tibalt dead that would haue slaine my husband:
All this is comfort, wherefore weepe I then?Some words there was worser then
Tybalts death
[1705]
That murdered me, I would forget it feine,But oh, it presses to my memory,Like damned guilty deedes to sinners minds,Tybalt is dead and
Romeo banished:
That banished, that one word banished,
[1710]
Hath slaine ten thousand
Tibalts:
Tibalts death
Was woe inough if it had ended there:Or if sower woe delights in fellowship,And needly will be rankt with other griefes,Why followed not when she said
Tibalts dead,
[1715]
Thy Father or thy Mother, nay or both,Which moderne lamentation might haue mou'd.But which a rere‑ward following
Tybalts death
Romeo is banished to speake that word,
Is Father, Mother,
Tybalt,
Romeo,
Iuliet,
[1720]
All slaine, all dead:
Romeo is banished,
There is no end, no limit, measure, bound,In that words death, no words can that woe sound.Where is my Father and my Mother Nurse?Nur.Weeping and wailing ouer
Tybalts Coarse,
[1725]
Will you go to them? I will bring you thither.Iu.Wash they his wounds with tears: mine shal be spentWhen theirs are drie for
Romeo's banishment.
Take vp those Cordes, poore ropes you are beguil'd,Both you and I for
Romeo is exild:
[1730]
He made you for a
high‑way to my bed,
But I a Maid, die Maiden widowed.Come Cord, come Nurse, Ile to my wedding bed,And death not
Romeo, take my Maiden head.
Nur.Hie to your Chamber, Ile find
Romeo
[1735]
To comfort you, I wot well where he is:Harke ye your
Romeo will be heere at night,
Ile to him, he is hid at
Lawrence Cell.
Iul.O find him, giue this Ring to my true Knight,And bid him come, to take his last farewell.Exit.
