Romeo and Friar Laurence discuss Romeo’s new love in this dialogue from Act II, scene iii of Romeo and Juliet
Romeo: I pray thee, chide not; she, whom I love now
Doth grace for grace and love for love allow;
The other did not so.
Friar Laurence: O! she knew well
Thy love did read by rote and could not spell.
But come, young waverer, come, go with me,
In one respect I’ll thy assistant be;
For this alliance may so happy prove,
To turn your households’ rancour to pure love.
Romeo: O! let us hence; I stand on sudden haste.
Friar Laurence: Wisely and slow; they stumble that run fast
