Capulet:

And too soon marred are those so early made.

Earth hath swallowed all my hopes but she;

She's the hopeful lady of my earth.

But woo her, gentle Paris, get her heart;

My will to her consent is but a part.

And, she agreed, within her scope of choice

Lies my consent and fair according voice.
