Against to-morrow. My heart is wondrous light,
Since this same wayward girl is so reclaim'd. 48
Scene Three
[Juliet's Chamber]
Enter Juliet and Nurse.
Jul. Ay, those attires are best; but, gentle nurse,
I pray thee, leave me to myself to-night;
For I have need of many orisons
To move the heavens to smile upon my state, 4
Which, well thou know'st, is cross and full of sin.
Enter Mother.
Lady Cap. What! are you busy, ho? need you my help?
Jul. No, madam; we have cull'd such necessaries
As are behoveful for our state to-morrow: 8
So please you, let me now be left alone,
And let the nurse this night sit up with you;
For, I am sure, you have your hands full all
In this so sudden business.
Lady Cap. Good-night: 12
Get thee to bed, and rest; for thou hast need.
Jul. Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again.
I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins,
That almost freezes up the heat of life: 16
I'll call them back again to comfort me:
Nurse! What should she do here?
3 orisons: prayers
5 cross: perverse
8 state: appearance befitting rank
