"Now old desire doth in his deathbed lie
And young affection gapes to be his heir;
That fair for which love groaned for and would die,
With tender Juliet matched, is now not fair.
Now Romeo is beloved, and loves again,
Alike bewitched by the charm of looks;
But to his foe supposed he must complain,
And she steal love's sweet bait from fearful hooks.
Being held a foe, he may not have access
To breathe such vows as lovers use to swear;
And she as much in love, her means much less
To meet her new beloved any where.
But passions lends them power, time means, to meet,
Tempering extremities with extreme sweet."
The Prologue is a Sonnet, and the last two lines are therefore a couplet.…"the which if you with patient ears attend/What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend."
A couplet.
