Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life,
Whose misadventured piteous o'erthrows
Do with their deaths bury their parents' strife.
The fearful passage of their death-marked love
And the continuance of their parents' rage
Which but their children's end, nought could remove
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage.
The which, if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

Did shakespeare really write the prologue to Romeo and Juliet There is some question about the authorship since it doesn't appear in the Folio of 1623?

It is true that the famous prologue does not appear in the Folio version of Romeo and Juliet. It does, however, appear in the Quarto versions of 1599, 1609 and 1622 in the form we know it, and in the first Quarto of 1597 in somewhat garbled form. In all of the Quarto versions, the Prologue is printed on a separate page before the play starts, and the printer may just have missed it when setting the type. I've included a link to a facsimile of Q2 so you can see what I mean. Since it is included in all Quarto versions of the plays, and the prologue to Act 2 is not omitted in the Folio, it's probably reasonable to assume that the omission of the general prologue is a printer's error, and was a genuine part of the play.
