Romeo & Juliet:::ACT 1 SCENE 5

Definitely one of my fave scene...and that's THE way to flirt man...*smile*

Romeo & Juliet (ACT 1 SCENE 5)

Romeo: If I profane with my unworthiest hand.This holy shrine,the gentle fine is this:My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand.To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.

Juliet: Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,Which mannerly devotion shows in this;For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.

Romeo: Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?

Juliet: Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.

Romeo: O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do;They pray -- grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.

Juliet: Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.

Romeo: Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.Thus from my lips, by yours,my sin is purged.

Juliet: Then have my lips the sin that they have took.

Romeo: Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged!Give me my sin again.

Juliet: You kiss by the book.
