Secretly married to Romeo, a desperate Juliet turns to her nurse for comfort when her parents try to force her to marry the Count Paris. But nurse's advice--to enter into this second marriage-- is not acceptable to Juliet. Juliet will next turn to Friar Lawrence for help. (Act IV, scene 1).

Nurse: "Romeo is banished, and all the world to nothing...
I think it best you married with the County."
Juliet: "Speakest thou from thy heart?"
