1 Ay, so I fear; the more is my unrest.
2 O, much I fear some ill unlucky thing.
3 His looks I fear, and his intents I doubt.
4 We will have vengeance for it, fear thou not.
5 Romeo, come forth; come forth, thou fearful man.
6 I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins That almost freezes up the heat of life.
7 And this shall free thee from this present shame, If no inconstant toy nor womanish fear Abate thy valour in the acting it.
8 It was the nightingale, and not the lark, That pierc'd the fearful hollow of thine ear; Nightly she sings on yond pomegranate tree.
9 I dare not, sir; My master knows not but I am gone hence, And fearfully did menace me with death If I did stay to look on his intents.
10 Or bid me go into a new-made grave, And hide me with a dead man in his shroud; Things that, to hear them told, have made me tremble, And I will do it without fear or doubt, To live an unstain'd wife to my sweet love.
11 I fear too early: for my mind misgives Some consequence yet hanging in the stars, Shall bitterly begin his fearful date With this night's revels; and expire the term Of a despised life, clos'd in my breast By some vile forfeit of untimely death.

13 The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love, And the continuance of their parents' rage, Which, but their children's end, nought could remove, Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage; The which, if you with patient ears attend, What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.
14 Now Romeo is belov'd, and loves again, Alike bewitched by the charm of looks; But to his foe suppos'd he must complain, And she steal love's sweet bait from fearful hooks: Being held a foe, he may not have access To breathe such vows as lovers use to swear; And she as much in love, her means much less To meet her new beloved anywhere.
