If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Juliet:
Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.
Romeo:
Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?
Juliet:
Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.
Romeo:
O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do;
They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.
Juliet:
Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.
Romeo:
Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.
Thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged.
Juliet:
Then have my lips the sin that they have took.
Romeo:
Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged!
Give me my sin again.
Juliet:
You kiss by the book.”

saint, an honourable villain!”

Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Do with their death bury their parents' strife.”

Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes;
Being vexed, a sea nourished with loving tears.

A choking gall, and a preserving sweet.
*Here’s what love is: a smoke made
out of lovers' sighs. When the smoke clears, love is a fire burning in
your lover’s eyes. If you frustrate love, you get an ocean made out of
lovers' tears. What else is love? It’s a wise form of madness. It’s a
sweet lozenge that you choke on.*”
― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
