Romeo and Juliet - William Shatner
[Intro]
Romeo is madly in love with Juliet. But because of a senseless family feud, the two lovers are forbidden to speak to one another. Romeo is a true believer that the spirit of love can overcome all obstacles. At the moment he is standing in a garden by Juliet's bedroom window, wondering if he should call out his name and tell her of his burning love

[Verse 1]
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon
Who is already sick and pale with grief
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off

It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing: what of that?
Her eye discourses; I will answer it
I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks:

Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven
Having some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres till they return
What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars
As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night
See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O, that I were a glove upon that hand
That I might touch that cheek!
