"You said five hundred dollars for one of those letters. Is it not?" "Yes." Tybalt had a new hope. "T'sh! What do I want of five hundred dollars! But, here, answer me a question: Was the lady his wife, she that was left in England a good woman? Answer me out of your own sense, and from my story. If you say right you shall have a letter one that I have by me." Tybalt's heart leapt into his throat.
Tybalt looked intently for an instant, and then drew a long breath. "Charles Rex," he said, hardly above his breath. Pierre gave him a suggestive sidelong glance. "That name was droll, eh?" Tybalt's blood was tingling with the joy of discovery. "It is a great name," he said shortly. "The Slave was great the Indians said so at the last." "But that was not the name of the Slave?" "Mais non.
What convinces me that he virtually died with Mercutio is chiefly this that this comrade of Romeo's lives so keenly as to be fully capable of the death that he takes at Tybalt's sword-point; he lived indeed, he dies indeed. Another thing that marks the close of a career of ages is his loss of his long customary good luck.
In the final scene she reached the climax of her acting, which, from the time of Tybalt's death to the end, was full of tragic power that we have never seen excelled. She is, undoubtedly, a great actress, and last night evidenced a magnificent genius, more especially remarkable on account of her extreme youth; but whether she is a great Juliet is, indeed, more doubtful.
The air was balmy and absolutely still; no more perfect setting to Shakespeare or to Juliet could have been imagined. Wallace, and myself. She did the balcony scene, the morning scene with Romeo, the scene with the nurse after Tybalt's death, and the scene of the philtre. There is an old sundial in the garden, which caught the moonbeams.
Shakespeare also follows Brooke in Juliet's momentary outburst against Romeo when she hears of Tybalt's death, but the contradiction of the echo by the nurse is Shakespeare's own: 'Blister'd be thy tongue For such a wish! he was not born to shame. Apart from the quarrel between the Montagus and Capulets, we feel that the love between Romeo and Juliet could have no other than a tragic end.
We have so often seen aged Juliets; stiff, stagey Juliets; fat, roomy Juliets; and ill-featured Juliets, that the sight of a young, lady-like girl with natural dramatic genius, a bright face, an unworn voice, is truly refreshing. In the scene where the nurse brings her the bad news of Tybalt's death and Romeo's banishment, she acted charmingly.
Who ever heard of Arlecchino unfortunate before, at fault with his sword-play, overtaken by tragedy? His time had surely come. The gay companion was to bleed; Tybalt's sword had made a way. 'Twas not so deep as a well nor so wide as a church-door, but it served.
