Answer:
ROMEO
This gentleman Mercutio, a close relative of the Prince and my dear friend, was killed while defending me from Tybalt’s slander—Tybalt, who had been my cousin for a whole hour! Oh, sweet Juliet, your beauty has made me weak like a woman, and you have softened my bravery, which before was as hard as steel.
Enter BENVOLIO
BENVOLIO enters.
BENVOLIO
O Romeo, Romeo, brave Mercutio is dead!
That gallant spirit hath aspired the clouds,
80Which too untimely here did scorn the earth.
BENVOLIO
Oh Romeo, Romeo, brave Mercutio is dead! His brave spirit has floated up to heaven, but it was too early for him to leave life on earth.
ROMEO
This day’s black fate on more days doth depend.
This but begins the woe others must end.
ROMEO
The future will be affected by today’s terrible events. Today is the start of a terror that will end in the days ahead.
Enter TYBALT
TYBALT enters.
BENVOLIO
Here comes the furious Tybalt back again.
BENVOLIO
Here comes the furious Tybalt back again.
ROMEO
Alive in triumph—and Mercutio slain!
85Away to heaven, respective lenity,
And fire-eyed fury be my conduct now.
Now, Tybalt, take the “villain” back again
That late thou gavest me, for Mercutio’s soul
Is but a little way above our heads,
90Staying for thine to keep him company.
Either thou or I, or both, must go with him.
ROMEO
He’s alive and victorious, and Mercutio’s dead? Enough with mercy and consideration. It’s time for rage to guide my actions. Now, Tybalt, you can call me “villain” the way you did before. Mercutio’s soul is floating right above our heads. He’s waiting for you to keep him company on the way up to heaven. Either you, or I, or both of us have to go with him.
