BenvolioGood morning, cousin.RomeoIs it still morning?BenvolioThe clock just struck nine. 155RomeoAlas, the hours seem so long.Was that my father who left here so quickly?BenvolioYes, it was. What sadness lengthens your hours, Romeo?RomeoNot having something that, if I had it, would make the hoursseem short.BenvolioAre you in love? 160RomeoOut—BenvolioOf love?RomeoThe one I love doesn’t love me.BenvolioIt’s too bad that love, so gentle in appearance,should be so tyrannous and rough when being experienced. 165RomeoIt’s too bad that love, whose sight is blindfolded,can still see ways to work his will even without his eyes.(pause) Where shall we eat? (pause) My, what fight happenedhere?On second thought, don’t tell me, for I’ve heard it all.It has much to do with hate, but more with love. 170Why, then, Oh brawling love! Oh loving hate!Oh anything first created out of nothing!Act 1, Scene 1 37
O heavy lightness! Serious vanity!Mis-shapen chaos of well-seeming forms!175 Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health!Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is!This love feel I, that feel no love in this.Dost thou not laugh?BenvolioNo, coz, I rather weep.Romeo180 Good heart, at what?BenvolioAt thy good heart’s oppression.RomeoWhy, such is love’s transgression.Griefs of mine own lie heavy in my breast,Which thou wilt propagate to have it prest185 With more of thine. This love that thou hast shownDoth add more grief to too much of mine own.Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs;Being purg’d, a fire sparkling in lovers’ eyes;Being vex’d, a sea nourish’d with lovers’ tears.190 What is it else? A madness most discreet,A choking gall, and a preserving sweet.Farewell, my coz.BenvolioSoft! I will go along.And if you leave me so, you do me wrong.Romeo195 Tut, I have left myself; I am not here.This is not Romeo; he’s some otherwhere.BenvolioTell me in sadness, who is that you love?romeoWhat, shall I groan and tell thee?BenvolioGroan! Why, no;38Romeo and Juliet
