[B][COLOR=orangered]Hold, there is forty Duckets, let me have
A dram of poison, such soon speeding gear,
As will disperse itself through all the veins,
That the life-weary-taker may fall dead,
And that the Trunk may be discharg'd of breath,
As violently, as hasty powder fired

Yep, Chaz, that was all from Bill Shake's R&J. The stuff with the line numbers I quoted directly from the 1623 First Folio edition (thanks to UVa). One of my posts was in pink - it's the bit where they decide the color pink is pretty gay, and Romeo is talking about his lovepump. That stuff cracked me up as a HS student

Sometimes I forget how hip Shakespeare was. Amazing how timeless that stuff is.
Of course, Juliet was, like, 13 or something, and Romeo not much more. Talk about raging hormones... That hasn't changed much either.
Too bad Shake didn't have Altezzas or Capri pants to rant on about!
