Romeo and Juliet

“Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, 
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean."
Romeo and Juliet is a picture of love and its pitiable fate in a world whose atmosphere is too sharp for this, the tenderest blossom of human life. Two beings created for each other feel mutual love at the first glance; every consideration disappears before the irresistible impulse to live for one another. Under circumstances hostile in the highest degree to their union, they unite themselves by a secret marriage. Unfortunate incidents follow in rapid succession: forcibly separated from each other, their heroic constancy is put to the test until, by a voluntary death they are united in the grave to meet again in another world.
