   This line is spoken by the Nurse in Act III, scene 3. She comes looking for Romeo, and Friar Laurence tells her he is upset because he can't be with Juliet, that he is "made drunk with his own tears." The Nurse says that Juliet is just the same, lying on her bed, crying her eyes out. She tells Romeo:

   Stand up, stand up; stand, an you be a man:
   For Juliet's sake, for her sake, rise and stand;
   Why should you fall into so deep an O?
