You must go! The theatre is
the most beautiful place on earth!

1:04:05
Of course I am a bit partial.
1:04:08
The theatre is romance.
1:04:14
Romance?
1:04:17
Oh yes...
1:04:20
I've brought you something else!
1:04:28
Thank you.
- Have you read it?

1:04:32
No, but I certainly shall.
1:04:44
"Romeo and Juliet"!
1:04:47
Yes, I've heard of this.
1:04:53
"If I profane with my unworthiest hand
1:04:58
this holy shrine,
the gentle fine is this:

1:05:03
Thy lips, two blushing pilgrims,
1:05:09
ready stand, to smooth that
rough touch with a tender kiss."

1:05:18
"Good Pilgrim,
you do wrong your hand too much,

1:05:22
which mannerly devotion show in this.
1:05:25
For saints have hands
that pilgrims' hands do touch.

1:05:29
And palm to palm's
holy Palmer's kiss."

1:05:33
"Oh then, dear Saint,
let lips do what hands do.

1:05:39
They pray, grant thou
lest faith turn to despair."

1:05:46
"Saints do not move,
though grant for prayer's sake."

1:05:52
"Then move not,
while my prayer's effect I take.

1:05:59
Thus from my lips,
by thine, my sin is purged."
