Q

Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?

A

Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.

1
Q

If I profane with my unworthiest hand this holy shrine, the gentle sin is this, my lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.

A

Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hands too much, which mannerly devotion shows in this, for saints have hands, that pilgrims’ hands do touch, and Palm to palm, is holy palmers kiss.

2
Q

O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do, they pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to dispair.

A

Saints do not move, though grant for prayers’ sake.

3
Q

Then move not while my prayer’s effect I take. Thus from my lips, by thine my sin is purg’d.

A

Then have not my lips the sin that they have took?

4
Q

Sin from my lips? O trespass sweetly urg’d! Give me my sin again.

A

You kiss by th’ book.

5
Q

Is she a Capulet? O dear account! My life is my foe’s debt.

A

What is yond gentleman?

6
Q

His name is Romeo, and a Montague.

A

My only love sprung from my only hate, too early seen unknown and known too late! Prodigious birth of love it is to me, that I must love a loathed enemy.
