3Perchance she cannot meet him: that'due south not so.
4O, she is lame! Love's heralds should exist thoughts,
fiveWhich ten times faster glide than the sun's beams,
6Driving back shadows over louring hills:
sevenTherefore practice nimble-pinion'd doves draw Love,
8And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.
9Now is the sun upon the highmost colina
10Of this twenty-four hour period's journeying, and from 9 till twelve

19Hast one thousand met with him? Ship thy man abroad.
Nurse
twenty. gate: From the use of the word "gate," and Juliet's subsequently argument that her mother is "within," we may deduce that this scene takes place in a garden or orchard, peradventure the same i in which Romeo stood and gazed at Juliet.

[Exit PETER.]
JULIET
