This is the first line of the inscription on William Shakespeare's grave.

It is a curse on anyone who disturbs his bones.

The full poem goes something like this:

"Good friend for Jesus sake forbear

To dig the dust enclosed here.

Blessed be the man that spares these stones

And cursed be he that moves my bones."

Shakespeare himself wrote this and specifically requested this on his grave.

What does Romeo mean when he says forbear?

"Forbear" means "refrain from doing" (You can find this by looking it up in any dictionary) Thus when Romeo says in Act III Scene I "Draw, Benvolio; beat down their weapons. Gentlemen, for shame, forbear this outrage!", the "outrage" he is talking about is fighting in the streets which, as he points out immediately afterwards, has been forbidden by the Prince. "Forbear this outrage" means "Refrain from fighting" or even more simply "Don't fight."
