SCENE XV.

Antonio and Juliet.

Juliet.

Father!

Antonio.

Where am I? Great God! What voice is this which ſtrikes my ear?

Juliet.

Father!

Antonio.

'Tis Juliet, or my fright deceives me!

Juliet.

Cruel father, hear me, if you ſtill poſſeſs the leaſt ſpark of humanity.

Antonio.

Is it you, my daughter? Ah, Heavens! my blood freezes in my veins!

Juliet.

I come from the dark abode of death to reproach thee with thy rigour and injuſtice.

Antonio.

Alas! my dear Juliet; how hard is it that I can never ſee you more!

Juliet.

Would have me appear to you under the ſhape which my deſtiny has obliged me to aſſume ſince our ſeparation?
