What does 'Saints do not move though grant for prayers sake' mean?
This line is from Juliet, 5th scene of act 1, it´s from her first dialog with Romeo, as he makes his first move to meet Juliet. He compares her to a holy shrine, or a sacred sanctuary, and his lips as devoted pilgrims. Juliet responds that he does wrong his hands too much, and asks which mannerly devotion was being shown as pilgrims do touch saints´ hands as palms touch like a kiss from a devotee, or a holy palmer´s kiss. Then Romeo refutes if saints don´t have lips and followers too. She replies that they own lips to be used only in prayer, then he calls her a dear saint and asks her to let lips do what hands do. His lips pray for a kiss, without which he will turn to dispair. Juliet replies that Saints do not move, though for prayers´ sake. This is the moment when Romeo makes his move to kiss her asking her not to move while the effect of what he was praying for is taken, The KISS. "Move not, while my prayer´s effect I take. Thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged." Juliet answers then have my lips the sin that they have took? Romeo says, sin form thy lips? Trespass sweetly urged, give me my sin again. Juliet says, you kiss by the book. And so they are interrupted by the nurse. This is the dialog that made them fall in love completely with each other.
Where do saints and sinners come into Shakespeare?
Shakespeare uses the words "saints" some 14 times, most memorably in the Romeo and Juliet dialogue "Have not saints lips and holy palmers too?", Richard II's "I'll give my jewels for a set of beads . . . my subjects for a pair of carved saints . . .", or Isabella's "great men may jest with saints, 'tis wit in them but in the less foul, profanation." Also one of his characters, Joan la Pucelle, was declared to be a saint afterwards by the Catholic Church, although Shakespeare certainly did not view her that way. On the other hand, he uses the word "sinners" only four times, most memorably in Hamlet's "Why would thou be a breeder of sinners?" His character Falstaff is certainly a fine example of a sinner, although there are many of them in the plays.
