96 ROMEO AND JULIET. 

How ! will she none ? doth she not give us thanks ? 
Is she not proud ? doth she not count her blest, 
Unworthy as she is, that we have wrought 
So worthy a gentleman to be her bridegroom ? 

Juliet. Not proud you have, but thankful that you

Proud can I never be of what I hate ; 
But thankful even for hate that is meant love. 

Caindet. How now, how now, chop-logic ! What is 
this ? 
' Proud ' and ' I thank you ' and ' I thank you not/ 
And yet ' not proud ' ! Mistress minion, you. 
Thank me no thankings, nor proud me no prouds, 
P)ut fettle your fine joints 'gainst Thursday next, 
To go with Paris to Saint Peter's Church, 
Or I will drag thee on a hurdle thither. 
Out, you green-sickness carrion ! out, you baggage ! 
You tallow-face ! 

Lady Capidet. Fie, fie ! what, are you mad ? 

Juliet. Good father, I beseech you on my knees. 
Hear me with patience but to speak a word. 

Capulet. Hang thee, young baggage ! disobedient

Or never after look me in the face. 
Speak not, reply not, do not answer me ; 
My lingers itch. — Wife, we scarce thought us blest
