Thou wear a lion's hide! doff it for shame,
And hang a calf's-skin on those recreant limbs.

Romeo and Juliet
[III, 2]

Juliet

1786

What storm is this that blows so contrary?
Is Romeo slaughter'd, and is Tybalt dead?
My dear-loved cousin, and my dearer lord?
Then, dreadful trumpet, sound the general doom!
For who is living, if those two are gone?

Romeo and Juliet
[V, 3]

Prince Escalus

3190

Seal up the mouth of outrage for a while,
Till we can clear these ambiguities,
And know their spring, their head, their
true descent;
And then will I be general of your woes,
And lead you even to death: meantime forbear,
And let mischance be slave to patience.
Bring forth the parties of suspicion.
