“O, speak again, bright angel, for thou art

As glorious to this night, being o’er my head,

As is a wingèd messenger of heaven.”

“My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand

To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.”

“Earth hath swallowed all my hopes but she;

She’s the hopeful lady of my earth.”

“there is no world without Verona walls, / But purgatory, torture, hell itself”
