2. Juliet In truth, fair Montague, I am too fond; And therefore thou mayst think my ‘havior light” But trust me, gentleman, I’ll prove more true Than those that have more cunning to be strange. I should have been more strange, I must confess, But that thou overheard’st, ere I was ‘ware, My true love’s passion: therefore pardon me….

6. Juliet Tis almost morning; I would have thee gone: And yet no farther than a wanton’s bird, Who lets it hop a little from her hand, Like a poor prisoner in his twisted gyves, And with a silk thread plucks it back again. So loving jealous of his liberty. (Romeo: I would I were they bird) Sweet, so would I: Yet I should kill thee with much cherishing.
