about

There's a fascinating tale within Shakespeare's 'Romeo and Juliet' - and not many people know it. This is the real Juliet, Elizabeth Vernon.

lyrics

Juliet:
Not fourteen summers have I known
No lovers that I knew
The world that I enter now with you,
Is bright and new.
An arbour of the rarest blooms,
Sweet garden of delight.
The sweetest scent for me by far,
Bourne on the wings of night.

Romeo:
What’s Montague, not hand nor foot,
Not arm, nor face, nor part,
I must find some other name,
To call my heart.
A rose by any other name,
Is still a flower sweet.
By what light, what sound, what flame,
Makes my heart miss a beat?

Both:
Romeo, oh Romeo;
Where are you now?
Why does my heart beat faster now?
Than nature should allow.

Romeo:
But soft what light yonder breaks,
Is Juliet, is sun?
Come fair Sun and kill this moon,
For her dark work is done.
I would be her gloved hand,
To each and be her part.
What says she now?
I’ll know somehow, the secrets of her heart.
