Romeo & Juliet

Juliet:
Now good sweet Nurse, O Lord, why look'st thou sad?
Though news be sad, yet tell them merrily.
If good, thou shamest the music of sweet news,
By playing it to me, with so sour a face.

Nurse:
I am a-weary, give me leave a while,
Fie how my bones ache, what a jaunce have I

Juliet:
I would thou hadst my bones, and I thy news:
Nay come I pray thee speak, good good Nurse speak.

Nurse:
Jesu what haste, can you not stay a while?
Do you not see that I am out of breath?

Juliet:
How art thou out of breath, when thou hast breath
To say to me, that thou art out of breath?
The excuse that thou dost make in this delay,
Is longer than the tale thou dost excuse.

William Shakespeare.
The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Romeo & Juliet.
Act 2 Scene 5.


HAHAHA no it's not from the balcony scene. Nor is it from the dying end. I'm sorry. Romeo & Juliet was a comedy, not a tragedy. Not with happenings such as the one above.
