The phrase "Thou detestable maw, thou womb of death" is a line from William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet," spoken by Romeo as he confronts the grave of Juliet. Here, "maw" refers to the gaping mouth or abyss of the tomb, while "womb of death" suggests that the grave is a source or container of death. Romeo expresses his hatred for the tomb, viewing it as a monstrous entity that separates him from Juliet and symbolizes the finality of death. This line captures his intense grief and despair over their tragic fate.
