ROMEO
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
ROMEO / JULIET
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
JULIET
O, such another sleep that I might be
Such another man as he.
ROMEO
His face was as the heavens
His eyes the sun and moon
JULIET
His royal voice, propertied
As all the spheres in tune
ROMEO / JULIET
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
O, such another sleep that I might be
Such another man as he.
JULIET
His delights were dolphin-like
They showed his back above the element he lived in
ROMEO
Our night o’ercame me quite.
JULIET
And how the garden of my love took root within him.
In his bounty,
ROMEO
There was no winter sleeping
JULIET
He was autumn
ROMEO
And grew the more by reaping
ROMEO / JULIET
Reaping
ROMEO
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
JULIET
O, such another sleep that I might see
Such another man as he
His legs bestrid the ocean
His arm crested the world
His voice was as the thunder
I dreamt there was an Emperor
ROMEO
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
JULIET
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
ROMEO / JULIET
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
ROMEO
I dreamt there was an Emperor.
JULIET
O, such another sleep that I might see…
ROMEO
Thinkst thou there was, or could ever be
Such another man as this
ROMEO / JULIET
I dreamed?
