Immediately after Romeo has fallen in love with Juliet at the party in Capulet's palace, Romeo feels he loves Juliet so much he cannot go home, so when he hears his friends calling for him he hides. Mercutio knows Romeo is somewhere in the vicinity and sends loudly mocks him for being a silly lover. Mercutio believes that Romeo is still in love with Rosaline, and so he calls out:

I conjure thee by Rosaline's bright eyes,

By her high forehead and her scarlet lip,

By her fine foot, straight leg and quivering thigh

And the demesnes that there adjacent lie,

That in thy likeness thou appear to us!

Act 2, Scene 1, lines 17-21
