Romeo and Juliet
(Auto-generated)
- Now by Saint Peter's Church, and Peter too,
He shall not make me there a joyful bride.p. 165.2 *Saint Peter = most prominent of the disciples of Jesus and regarded by Catholics as the first Pope - Now, by Saint Peter's Church, and Peter too,
He shall not make me there a joyful bride!
I wonder at this haste, that I must wed
Ere he that should be husband comes to woo.
I pray you, tell my lord and father, madam,
I will not marry yet, and when I do I swear
It shall be Romeo, whom you know I hate,
Rather than Paris. These are news indeed!†p. 165.3Saint Peter = most prominent of the disciples of Jesus and leader of the Apostles; regarded by Catholics as the first Pope; crucified (?-c. ad 64) - How, how, how, how? Chopped logic? What is this?
"Proud," and "I thank you," and "I thank you not,"
And yet "not proud"? Mistress minion you,
Thank me no thankings, nor proud me no prouds,
But fettle your fine joints 'gainst Thursday next
To go with Paris to Saint Peter's Church,
Or I will drag thee on a hurdle thither.
Out, you green-sickness carrion! Out, you baggage!
You tallow face!†p. 167.6
