Paris: happily met, my lady and my wife!

juliet: that may be, sir, when i may be a wife.

paris: that may be must be, love, on thursday next.

juliet: what must be shall be.

friar laurence: that's a certain text.

paris: come you to make confession to this father?

juliet: to answer that, i should confess to you.

paris: do not deny to him that you love me.

juliet: i will confess to you that i love him.

paris: so will ye, i am sure, that you love me.

juliet: if i do so, it will be of more price,
being spoke behind your back, than to your face.

paris: poor soul, thy face is much abused with tears.

juliet: the tears have got small victory by that;
for it was bad enough before their spite.

paris: thou wrong'st it, more than tears, with that report.

juliet: that is no slander, sir, which is a truth;
and what i spake, i spake it to my face.

paris: thy face is mine, and thou hast slander'd it.

juliet: it may be so, for it is not mine own.
are you at leisure, holy father, now;
or shall i come to you at evening mass?

friar laurence: my leisure serves me, pensive daughter, now.
my lord, we must entreat the time alone
