ACT 1, SCENE 1<br />

NO'IA.~<br />

SAMPSON<br />

ABRAM<br />

SAMPSON<br />

If you want to fight, I'm your man. My employer is as<br />

good as yours.<br />

But he's not better than mine.<br />

Well then.<br />

BENVOLIO enters.<br />

GREGORY<br />

SAMPSON<br />

ABRAM<br />

SAMPSON<br />

(speaking so that only SAMPSON can hear) Say "better."<br />

Here comes one of my employer's relatives.<br />

(to ABRAM) Yes, "better," sir.<br />

You lie.<br />

Pull out your swords, if you're men. Gregory, remember<br />

how to slash.<br />

They fight.<br />

BENVOLIO<br />

(pulling out his sword) Break it up, you fools . Put your<br />

swords away. You don't know what you're doing.<br />

TYBALT enters.<br />

TYBALT<br />

What? You've pulled out your sword to fight with<br />

these worthless servants? Turn around, Benvolio, <strong>and</strong><br />

look at the man who's going to kill you.<br />
