 You ought, yourelf, to conider your palace as an inviolable aylum; certainly, Romeo can't come here with an intent to inult you. Doubtles, he had the curioity to want to ee the fetival which you give to your family: this noble confidence which he puts in us, by truting himelf in the midt of his enemies, forbids our giving him the leat affront. In hort, if the tep he has taken is a fault, his extreme youth renders it excueable: for my own part, I hould think, that the family hatred to us has not yet taken poeion of his heart.

Perhaps, he is armed; perhaps, he meditates ome treacherous deign.

This is talking like a man whoe paion has got the better of his reaon. What treachery can you fear in an aembly where all our force is united?

But, after all, is not my houe dihonoured, when I uffer a Montague to be there?

On the contrary, I think he does you honour, ince he truts himelf to your generoity.

I judge otherwie, and I am determined it hall cot him his life. Rh
