At this point in the play, Tybalt has recognised Romeo at the Capulet feast and speaks angrily to Lord Capulet.
TYBALT This, by his voice, should be a Montague. — Fetch me my rapier, boy. Page exits. What, dares the slave Come hither covered with an antic face To fleer and scorn at our solemnity? Now, by the stock and honour of my kin, To strike him dead I hold it not a sin. CAPULET Why, how now, kinsman? Wherefore storm you so? TYBALT Uncle, this is a Montague, our foe, A villain that is hither come in spite To scorn at our solemnity this night. CAPULET Young Romeo is it? TYBALT ’Tis he, that villain Romeo. CAPULET Content thee, gentle coz. Let him alone. He bears him like a portly gentleman, And, to say truth, Verona brags of him To be a virtuous and well-governed youth. I would not for the wealth of all this town Here in my house do him disparagement. Therefore be patient. Take no note of him. It is my will, the which if thou respect, Show a fair presence and put off these frowns, An ill-beseeming semblance for a feast. TYBALT It fits when such a villain is a guest. I’ll not endure him. |
