The Prince
For never was a story of more woe Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
For never was a story of more woe Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
The Prince. "For never was there a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo."
For never was a story of more woe, than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
"A glooming peace this morning with it brings; The sun for sorrow will not show his head. Go hence to have more talk of these sad things, Some shall be pardoned, and some punished, For never was a story of more woe <- The Epilogue of Romeo and Juliet Than this of Juliet and her Romeo."
NO! The final quote of the play is as follows:PRINCE ESCALUS: A glooming peace this morning with it brings.The sun for sorrow will not show his head.Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished;For never was a story of more woe>>>>>>> Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
Well, for a start, Shakespeare does not say it; the character Escalus says it. It is the last line in the play Romeo and Juliet, and is Escalus's closing comment on the scene of the double funeral. The line is self-explanatory. "Woe" means sadness. Adding a few words might make the line even clearer: "For never was (there) a story of more woe than this (story) of Juliet and her Romeo." If you still cannot understand that, you do not have enough English to understand this answer anyway.
If you rewrite the ending of a story, you change the story. If you took away the sad ending of Romeo and Juliet, it might be a happy love story (Shakespeare wrote a lot of happy love stories) but it wouldn't be Romeo and Juliet any more.
The couplet at the end of "Romeo and Juliet" is spoken by Prince Escalus. He delivers the lines as a conclusion to the play, emphasizing the tragedy of the lovers' deaths and calling for reconciliation between the Montagues and Capulets.
The Prince is the last to speak I believe.
In Romeo and Juliet, some quotes about love include "My only love sprung from my only hate!" and "For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo." Quotes about hate include "These violent delights have violent ends" and "A plague o' both your houses!"
The lyric goes "I just want you to know I want to be your Romeo. Hey, Juliet." The singer is alluding to the story of Romeo and Juliet saying that he would like to be a Romeo to her Juliet, which is to say, her lover. Apart from the fact that Romeo and Juliet are lovers, there is no connection in the lyrics with the Romeo and Juliet story. Indeed, from the attitude of the girl in the song, the song might have been more appropriately titled "Hey Rosaline"
