But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she.
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing; what of that?
Her eye discourses; I will answer it.
I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks.
Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,
Having some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres till they return.
What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night.
See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O, that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!

Juliet’s speech
JULIET
33 O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
34 Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
35 Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
36 And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
ROMEO [Aside.]
37 Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
JULIET
38 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
39 Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
40 What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
41 Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
42 Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
43 What's in a name? That which we call a rose
44 By any other name would smell as sweet;
45 So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
46 Retain that dear perfection which he owes
47 Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
48 And for that name which is no part of thee
49 Take all myself.

Task: Write a diary entry from
Juliet’s perspective after her speech
In your diary entry:
• Everyone must use their
imagination to write a diary
entry from the point of view
of Juliet, describing
character and plot
• Most will also vary
vocabulary, sentences
and punctuation for effect
• Some may use one or
more literary techniques
e.g. simile or alliteration
15 minutes
Re-read her lines and consider the following when
writing your entry:
•How does she feel about Romeo after the
party?
•What does she say at the start of her speech?
•What is she worried about?
•How does she think the problem can be
resolved?
JULIET
33 O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
34 Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
35 Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
36 And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
JULIET
38 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
39 Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
