LADY CAPULET
146Tybalt, my cousin! O my blood brother's kid!
147O prince! O cousin! married man! O, the blood is spilt
148O my dear kinsman! Prince, as chiliad art true,
149For blood of ours, shed blood of Montague.
150O cousin, cousin!
PRINCE
151Benvolio, who began this bloody fray?
BENVOLIO
152Tybalt, here slain, whom Romeo's manus did slay;
153. that spoke him off-white: who spoke to him civilly.
154. How nice the quarrel was: how lilliputian the cause of the quarrel was. 155. and urged withal / Your high displeasure: i.e., and also reminded Tybalt that you would be extremely angry at another street fight.
157. have truce: brand peace. unruly spleen: i.e., irrational bad atmosphere.
153Romeo that spoke him fair, bade him bethink
154How nice the quarrel was, and urged withal
155Your high displeasure: all this uttered
156With gentle breath, calm wait, knees humbly bow'd,
157Could not accept truce with the unruly spleen
158Of Tybalt deafened to peace, but that he tilts
159With piercing steel at assuming Mercutio's chest,
160Who all equally hot, turns deadly point to point,
161And, with a martial scorn, with one hand beats
162Common cold death bated, and with the other sends
163It back to Tybalt, whose dexterity,
164Retorts it. Romeo he cries aloud,
165"Hold, friends! friends, part!" and, swifter than his tongue,
166His agile arm beats downwards their fatal points,
167And 'twixt them rushes; underneath whose arm
168. envious: malicious.
169. stout: proud, fierce.
168An envious thrust from Tybalt hitting the life
169Of stout Mercutio, and so Tybalt fled;
170But past and past comes back to Romeo,
171. entertain'd: i.e., begun to think of.
172. ere: before.
173. stout: proud, fierce.
171Who had but newly entertain'd revenge,
172And to 't they go like lightning, for, ere I
173Could depict to part them, was stout Tybalt slain.
174And, equally he fell, did Romeo turn and wing.
175This is the truth, or allow Benvolio die.
LADY CAPULET
176He is a kinsman to the Montague;
177Affection makes him false; he speaks not true:
178Some twenty of them fought in this black strife,
179And all those 20 could merely kill one life.
180I beg for justice, which thou, prince, must give;
181Romeo slew Tybalt, Romeo must non live.
PRINCE
182Romeo slew him, he slew Mercutio;
183. dear: precious, costly.
183Who now the price of his beloved claret doth owe?
MONTAGUE
184Not Romeo, prince, he was Mercutio's friend;
185. concludes: puts an end to.
185His mistake concludes simply what the law should finish,
186The life of Tybalt.
PRINCE
186 And for that offence
187Immediately nosotros do exile him hence.
188. interest: personal stake.
189. My claret: i.due east., the blood of my kinsman, Mercutio.
190. amerce: punish by a fine.
188I have an interest in your hate's proceeding,
189My claret for your rude brawls doth lie a-bleeding;
190Only I'll amerce y'all with and then strong a fine
191That you shall all apologize the loss of mine.
192I volition exist deafened to pleading and excuses;
193. purchase out abuses: buy out [the punishment for] misdeeds.
193Nor tears nor prayers shall purchase out abuses:
194Therefore use none. Let Romeo hence in haste,
195Else, when he's found, that hour is his final.
196. attend our will: be on manus to hear my farther judgment.
197. Mercy but murders, pardoning those that kill: i.due east., having mercy on a murderer simply invites others to murder, because they recollect they will exist given mercy, too.
196Bear hence this body and attend our volition;
197Mercy only murders, pardoning those that impale.
Exeunt.
