88 ROMEO AND JULIET. 

And lie shall signify from time to time 

Every good hap to you that chances here. 

Give me thy hand ; 'tis late : farewell ; good night. 

Romeo. But that a joy past joy calls out on me, 
It were a grief, so brief to part with thee. 
Farewell. [Exeunt. 

Scene IV. A Room in Ca^ulet^s House. 

Enter Capulet, Lady Capulet, and Paris. 

- Capulet. Things have fallen out, sir, so unluckily, 
That we have had no time to move our daughter. 
Look you, she lov'd her kinsman Tybalt dearly, 
And so did I. — Well, we were born to die. — 
'Tis very late, she'll not come down to-night ; 
I promise you, but for your company, 
I would have been a-bed an hour ago. 

Paris. These times of woe afford no time to woo. 
Madam, good night ; commend nie to your daughter. 

Lady Capulet. I will, and know her mind early to- 
morrow ; 
To-night she's mew'd up to her heaviness. 

Capulet. Sir Paris, I will make a desperate tender 
Of my child's love : I think she will be rul'd 
In all respects by me ; nay, more, I doubt it not. — 
Wife, go you to her ere you go to bed ; 
Acquaint her here of my son Paris' love.
