Ice and desire.The world wags on.A rose will bloomIt then will fadeSo does a youth.So do-o-o-oes the fairest maid.Comes a time when one sweet smileHas its season for a while...Then love"s in love with me.Some they think only to marry, Others will tease and tarry,Mine is the very best parry.Cupid he rules us all.Caper the cape, but sing me the song,Death will come soon to hush us along.Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall.Love is a task and it never will pall.Sweeter than honey...and bitter as gallCupid he rules us all.After circling around the perimeter of the crowd during he song, Romeo takes Juliet by the hand from the opposite side of a pillar, and speaks his first words to her alone - to tell her of his passion.[To Pickering] If you spoke as she does, sir, instead of the way you do,Why you might be selling flowers too.[Collapse Section]
