Juliet: Act I, Scene 3 "Do you like PAris?" Flashcards
Nurse: Now, by my maidenhead, at twelve year old,
I bade her come. What, lamb! what, ladybird!
God forbid! Where’s this girl? What, Juliet!
Juliet:
How now!
Who calls?
Nurse: Your mother.
Juliet:
Madam, I am here.
What is your will?
Nurse:
Yes, madam: yet I cannot choose but laugh,
To think it should leave crying and say ‘Ay.’
And yet, I warrant, it had upon its brow
A bump as big as a young cockerel’s stone;
A parlous knock; and it cried bitterly:
‘Yea,’ quoth my husband,’fall’st upon thy face?
Thou wilt fall backward when thou comest to age;
Wilt thou not, Jule?’ it stinted and said ‘Ay.’
Juliet:
And stint thou 2,
I pray thee, nurse: say Ay!
Lady Capulet: Marry, that ‘marry’ is the very theme
I came to talk of. Tell me, daughter Juliet,
How stands your disposition to be married?
Juliet:
It is an honour that I dream NOT of.
Lady Capulet:
Speak briefly, can you like of Paris’ love?
Juliet:
I’ll look to like, if looking liking move:
But no more deep will I endart mine eye,
Than your consent gives strength to make it fly.
