All 3 Uses of
immortal
in
Romeo and Juliet
- He fights as you sing prick-song—keeps time, distance, and proportion; rests me his minim rest, one, two, and the third in your bosom: the very butcher of a silk button, a duellist, a duellist; a gentleman of the very first house,—of the first and second cause: ah, the immortal passado! the punto reverso! the hay.†
Scene 2.4
- —More validity, More honourable state, more courtship lives In carrion flies than Romeo: they may seize On the white wonder of dear Juliet's hand, And steal immortal blessing from her lips; Who, even in pure and vestal modesty, Still blush, as thinking their own kisses sin; But Romeo may not; he is banished,— This may flies do, when I from this must fly.†
Scene 3.3
- Then she is well, and nothing can be ill: Her body sleeps in Capel's monument, And her immortal part with angels lives.†
Scene 5.1 *
