Romeo and Juliet

Some consequence, yet hanging in the stars,

With this night's revels; and expire the term
Of a despised life, clos'd in my breast,
By some vile forfeit of untimely death:
But He that hath the steerage of my course
Direct my sail!†p. 46.9despised = disliked strongly and looked down upon
