Romeo and Juliet, IV. iv

Cap. No, not a whit; what! I have watch'd ere now

All night for lesser cause, and ne'er been sick.

Lady Cap. Ay, you have been a mouse-hunt in your time;

But I will watch you from such watching now.

Exeunt Lady and Nurse.

Cap. A jealous-hood, a jealous-hood!

Now, fellow,

What's there?

First Serv. Things for the cook, sir; but I know not what.

Cap. Make haste, make haste. [Exit first Serving-

man.] Sirrah, fetch drier logs:

Call Peter, he will show thee where they are.

Sec. Serv. I have a head, sir, that will find out logs,

And never trouble Peter for the matter.

Cap. Mass, and well said; a merry whoreson, ha!

Thou shalt be logger-head. Good faith! 'tis day:

The county will be here with music straight,

For so he said he would.

I hear him near.

Nurse! Wife! what, ho! What, nurse, I say!

Go waken Juliet, go and trim her up;

I'll go and chat with Paris. Hie, make haste,

Make haste; the bridegroom he is come already:

Make haste, I say.
