Romeo and Juliet Act 3 (Prologue)

Two	Two households, both alike in dignity,
In	In fair Verona (where we lay our scene),
From	From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where	Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From	From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair	A pair of star-cross’d lovers take their life;
Whose	Whose misadventur’d piteous overthrows
Doth	Doth with their death bury their parents’ strife.
The	The fearful passage of their death-mark’d love,
And	And the continuance of their parents’ rage,
Which	Which but their children’s end nought could remove,
Is	Is now the two hours traffic of our stage;
The	The which if you with patient ears attend,
What	What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.
