All the others are dancing and laughing;
No one knows of the pain that I suffer.
Romeo speaks, into her heart pathing.
Juliet smiles back - I ought to cuff her!1
How can any man bear to just stand there,
With a cursed Montague among us?
At Lord Capulet’s words, I can but stare.
He doth not care, for he wants not a fuss.2
I dare not make to kill Romeo now,
But someday, he shall lie dead at my hands!
By my blood, the crimson drops, this I vow!
They say it is I who misunderstands…3
Well, they are imbeciles, the lot of them!
Die, Montagues, it is thou I condemn!
Author notes
It probably doesn't sound like it's Tybalt talking at all, since I don't know how to write in Early Modern English that well, as you can see... >.< But ah well. I thought I'd post it anyway. Feel free to bash it... XD
Please let me know what you think. Thanks! ^.^

This was really good! I actually just finished this play for the third time this year, but was it written in Early Modern English? I thought it was written in Elizibethian...then again..is that the same thing as EME? I dunno....but still...this was great! Good job!

I think it's written in Early Modern English; at least, that's what our English teaher told us. Hmm, maybe it is the same thing... Anyways, thanks! ^^

Oh, I like it. I have yet to study this literature but I love the sound of Early Modern English. It sounds so...romantic. Even when you talk of murder. I also like how you wrote this. Great work! The flow was consistent, and I totally fell in love with the poem itself.
