ACT IV

SCENE 1

At RISE

(Father Lawrence and Paris converse inside a church one Friday afternoon.)

FATHER LAWRENCE

Oh Sunday, sir? That's very soon.

PARIS

That's how my future father-in-law, Mr. Capulet wants.

FATHER LAWRENCE

Is it okay for Juliet?

PARIS

She's grieving too much over the death of Tybalt. And this marriage is the only way for her to be happy again.

FRIAR LAWRENCE

(Father Lawrence speaks to himself softly.)

I wish I didn't know the reason why the marriage should be slowed down.

JULIET

(Juliet enters the church.)

FRIAR LAWRENCE

Oh! There comes your bride.

PARIS

(Paris embraces Juliet.)

I'm happy to meet you, my lady and my future wife.

(Paris bows down and kisses Juliet's hand but Juliet resists.)
