What does Juliet mean by mannerly devotion?
Juliet says, "Pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much that mannerly devotion shows in this." Romeo has just touched her (probably on the hand) and then apologized by saying "If I profane with my unworthiest hand . . ." which apology leads to his saying that he will fix any offence he may have given by kissing her. Juliet says that he wrongs his hand too much--it is not unworthiest and it hasn't offended her. In fact it has shown "mannerly devotion". "Mannerly" means with good manners, polite. "Devotion" means love, faithfulness, commitment. According to Juliet, he has given a polite token of love.

Take Romeo and Juliet, e.g. Romeo: "If I profane with my unworthiest handThis holy shrine, the gentle sin is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready standTo 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."
