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!
In the scene of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo's feelings for Juliet are a testament to a deep love. Looking at the sickly green light of the moon with envy, Romeo declares his devotion to her beauty. He urges her to cast off the vestal livery of the moon and embrace her true self, the dazzling sun. Oh, if only she knew she was his love! The words of Shakespeare still resonate today, reminding us of the power of true love to move and inspire us, even in the face of tragedy.
