Lyrics
Benvolio: At this same ancient feast of Capulet's. Sups the fair Rosalind whom thou so loves: With all the admired beauties of Verona, Go thither, and with unattainted eye, Compare her face with some that I shall show, And I will make thee think thy swan a crow. Romeo: When the devout religion of mine eye, Maintains such falsehood, then turn tears to fires: And these who often drown'd, could never die, Transparent heretics be burnt for liars. One fairer than my love, the all-seeing Sun, Ne'er saw her match, since first the world begun. Benvolio: Tut you saw her fair none else being by, Herself pois'd with herself in either eye: But in that crystal scales let there be weigh'd, Your lady's love against some other maid: That I will show you shining at this feast, And she shall scant show well that now seems best. Romeo: I'll go along no such sight to be shown, But to rejoice in splendour of mine own.
