<h3>Act I</h3>
<div>
<h3>Prologue</h3>
<div>
<p>Two households, both alike in dignity,
<br />
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
<br />
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
<br />
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
<br />
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
<br />
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;
<br />
Whole misadventured piteous overthrows
<br />
Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
<br />
The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,
<br />
And the continuance of their parents' rage,
<br />
Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,
<br />
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;
<br />
The which if you with patient ears attend,
<br />
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.
