The Only Use of
anguish
in
Romeo and Juliet
- Tut, man, one fire burns out another's burning,
One pain is lessen'd by another's anguish;
Turn giddy, and be holp by backward turning;
One desperate grief cures with another's languish:
Take thou some new infection to thy eye,
And the rank poison of the old will die.†p. 26.7anguish = extreme pain, suffering, or distress
