Act 2 • Scene 6

That drifts in the lazy summer air,

And does not fall. The joys in life are

that light.

ROMEO: Juliet, if your joy is as great as mine,

And you can describe it, then sweeten the air

With your words. Let them express the

Great happiness we feel

Because of this dear meeting.

JULIET: My joy is richer than words can say.

Only beggars can really count their worth.

But my true love has grown to such excess,

I cannot count up half my wealth.

FRIAR: Come with me. We will do this quickly.

For—begging your pardons—

You two cannot stay alone

Until the church has made you one.

(Romeo, Juliet, and Friar Lawrence exit.)
