Thou pout'st upon[C 1][E 1] thy fortune and thy love: Take heed, take heed, for such die miserable.145 Go, get thee to thy love, as was decreed, Ascend her chamber, hence and comfort her; But look thou stay not till the watch be set, For then thou canst not pass to Mantua; Where thou shalt live till we can find a time150 To blaze your marriage, reconcile your friends, Beg pardon of the[C 2] prince, and call thee back With twenty hundred thousand times more joy Than thou went'st forth in lamentation.— Go before, nurse: commend me to thy lady,155 And bid her hasten all the house to bed, Which heavy sorrow makes them apt unto: Romeo is coming.

Nurse.
