Transcription
What satisfaction canst thou have tonight? Th' exchange of thy love's faithful vow for mine. Ahh. I gave thee mine before thou didst request it. And yet I would it were to give again. Wouldst thou withdraw it? For what purpose, love? But to be frank and give it thee again. And yet I wish but for the thing I have, My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep. The more I give to thee, the more I have, For both are infinite. Juliet! Anon, good nurse! Sweet montague, be true. Madam! Stay but a little, I will come again. Madam! Lady juliet! O blessed, blessed night! Oh! I am afeard, being in night, All this is but a dream, Too flattering-sweet to be substantial. Three words, dear romeo, and good night indeed. If that thy bent of love be honorable, Thy purpose marriage, send me word tomorrow, By one that I'll procure to come to thee. Where and what time thou wilt perform the rite, And all my fortunes at thy foot I'll lay And follow thee, my lord, throughout the world. Madam!
