Romeo and Juliet (Graded Reader), Chapter Five. "With a kiss, I die.”

Chapter Five. "With a kiss, I die.”

Back in Verona, Friar Laurence was waiting for Friar John. He was waiting for news from Mantua. Finally, Friar John arrived. ‘Welcome home,' said Friar Laurence. ‘How was Romeo? Did you give him my message? Is he here yet?'

‘I'm sorry,' replied Friar John, ‘I couldn't give him the message because I had some trouble on the way.'

‘But why?' said Friar Laurence, ‘What happened?'

Friar John explained. ‘I stopped in a village near Mantua, but some people had the plague. No one could leave the village because the soldiers were stopping everybody. I never arrived in Mantua. I never saw Romeo.'

Friar Laurence was very worried. ‘I must go to Juliet,' he said. ‘She'll wake up soon and she'll be all alone. She'll be frightened. I must be with her when she wakes up. She can hide at my house until Romeo arrives.' The friar ran to the church.

Meanwhile, Count Paris and his servant were outside the church. Count Paris was leaving flowers for Juliet. He was very sad and he wanted to be alone. ‘Give me some time alone with her,' he said to his servant, ‘but tell me if you hear someone coming. I don't want anyone to see me here. I just want to be alone.' The servant went away to watch. Suddenly he heard a noise and he ran to Count Paris. ‘There's someone coming, my Lord,' he said.

‘Quick, hide,' said the count. They hid in the dark and they watched.

Romeo and his servant were walking towards the church. They watched as Romeo gave his servant a letter. ‘Take this letter to my father tomorrow morning,' said Romeo, ‘I'm very sad. I just want to die. Now go away. Leave me alone. I want to be with Juliet.'

Romeo's servant promised to leave, but he was worried about Romeo. He decided to wait for Romeo outside the church. He hid in the dark and waited.

Just then, Count Paris came out of his hiding place. ‘Romeo, you're a dog!' he shouted. ‘You killed Tybalt! My Juliet killed herself because you killed Tybalt.'

‘Leave me alone!' said Romeo, ‘I don't want to argue with you. Can't you see I'm a desperate man? I don't want to fight with you. I just want to die. Go away.'

But Count Paris pulled out his sword and attacked Romeo. Count Paris's servant was frightened and he ran to find help. He ran to find Prince Escalus and the soldiers.

Count Paris wasn't a good fighter, but Romeo was. It was an easy fight for Romeo and Count Paris quickly fell. ‘I'm a dead man,' he said to Romeo. ‘You've killed me. Please, put my body next to Juliet's. I loved her and I want to be beside her.'

With these words, Paris died.

Romeo carried the count's body into the Capulet family vault. He saw the sleeping Juliet. She looked dead. Romeo looked sadly at her. ‘Why did you have to die?' he said. ‘You're so beautiful. Oh, my love, my wife. I can't live without you.'

Romeo drank the poison and he kissed his lovely Juliet. ‘With a kiss, I die,' he said to her. Romeo fell down, dead.

Friar Laurence was running towards the church when he met Romeo's servant. ‘Is Romeo in there?' said the friar.

‘Yes,' said the servant, ‘he's been in there for about half an hour.'

Friar Laurence ran down the steps into the family vault. He saw Count Paris and Romeo, dead on the floor. He couldn't believe his eyes. Then, Juliet started to move, she was waking up. ‘Hello Friar Laurence,' she said. ‘Where's Romeo? Where's my Romeo?'

‘Quick. Let's go,' said the friar, ‘I can hear someone coming. I'm sorry, but something terrible has happened. Romeo's dead and so is Paris. But we must go quickly now. The soldiers are coming. We must go.'

‘No, I can't leave,' said Juliet. ‘You go.'

Friar Laurence was frightened and ran away. Romeo's servant followed him.

Juliet looked around the vault. She saw Romeo and she saw the empty poison bottle in his hand. ‘Without you I want to die. Why didn't you leave any poison for me?' she said, picking up the bottle. ‘Perhaps, if I kiss you. Perhaps you'll have poison on your lips. Then I can die with your kiss.'

Juliet kissed Romeo. His lips felt warm but there wasn't any poison left on them.

Outside the soldiers were coming closer. Quickly, Juliet took Romeo's dagger. She fell down onto Romeo's body. She was dead.

Two soldiers came into the vault. They were shocked when they saw the three young bodies. ‘Something terrible has happened here.

Look outside! Find the killers!' they shouted. Then the other soldiers arrived. They brought Friar Laurence and Romeo's servant with them. ‘We found these two men outside,' said one of the soldiers. ‘They were running away.'

‘Good,' said his friend, ‘let's wait for Prince Escalus.'

A few moments later, Prince Escalus arrived. Lord Montague and the Capulets were with him. The prince looked at Friar Laurence. ‘Tell us what happened here,' said the prince.

The friar told the prince and the two families the whole story. He told them about the two young lovers. He told them about the secret wedding. He told them about the sleeping potion. Finally, he told them about the tragic problem with the message, the message which never arrived. Everybody listened sadly.

‘This is all our fault,' said Lord Capulet. He turned to Lord Montague. ‘Please, take my hand. Our children loved each other. They died because of our hate. We must stop this hate, now.'

‘Yes,' said Lord Montague, and he took Lord Capulet's hand. ‘So many people have died: Mercutio, Tybalt and Count Paris. Last night, my wife, Lady Montague, died of sadness. Now this final tragedy, this final woe. Romeo and his young Juliet.'

The two families decided to build a statue of the two lovers. A statue of Juliet with Romeo by her side.

‘This is a sorry story,' said the prince. ‘Go away and think. Go away and think about what your hate has done. Think about Romeo and his Juliet. Think about Juliet and her Romeo, because', he said, ‘there never was a story of more woe, than the story of Juliet and her Romeo.'

Back in Verona, Friar Laurence was waiting for Friar John. Zurück in Verona wartete Bruder Lorenz auf Bruder Johannes. He was waiting for news from Mantua. Er wartete auf Nachrichten aus Mantua. Finally, Friar John arrived. Schließlich kam Bruder Johannes. ‘Welcome home,' said Friar Laurence. Willkommen zu Hause", sagte Bruder Laurence. ‘How was Romeo? Wie war Romeo? Did you give him my message? Haben Sie ihm meine Nachricht überbracht? Is he here yet?' Ist er schon da?

‘I'm sorry,' replied Friar John, ‘I couldn't give him the message because I had some trouble on the way.' Es tut mir leid", antwortete Bruder Johannes, "ich konnte ihm die Nachricht nicht überbringen, weil ich auf dem Weg Schwierigkeiten hatte.

‘But why?' said Friar Laurence, ‘What happened?' Aber warum?", fragte Bruder Laurence, "Was ist passiert?

Friar John explained. ‘I stopped in a village near Mantua, but some people had the plague. Ich hielt in einem Dorf in der Nähe von Mantua, aber einige Leute hatten die Pest. No one could leave the village because the soldiers were stopping everybody. Niemand konnte das Dorf verlassen, weil die Soldaten jeden aufhielten. I never arrived in Mantua. Ich bin nie in Mantua angekommen. I never saw Romeo.' Ich habe Romeo nie gesehen.'

Friar Laurence was very worried. Bruder Laurentius war sehr besorgt. ‘I must go to Juliet,' he said. Ich muss zu Juliet gehen", sagte er. ‘She'll wake up soon and she'll be all alone. Sie wird bald aufwachen und dann ganz allein sein. She'll be frightened. Sie wird sich fürchten. I must be with her when she wakes up. Ich muss bei ihr sein, wenn sie aufwacht. She can hide at my house until Romeo arrives.' The friar ran to the church. Sie kann sich in meinem Haus verstecken, bis Romeo eintrifft". Der Mönch lief zur Kirche.

Meanwhile, Count Paris and his servant were outside the church. In der Zwischenzeit standen Graf Paris und sein Diener vor der Kirche. Count Paris was leaving flowers for Juliet. Graf Paris hinterlässt Blumen für Juliet. He was very sad and he wanted to be alone. Er war sehr traurig und wollte allein sein. ‘Give me some time alone with her,' he said to his servant, ‘but tell me if you hear someone coming. Lassen Sie mich etwas Zeit mit ihr allein", sagte er zu seinem Diener, "aber sagen Sie mir, wenn Sie jemanden kommen hören. I don't want anyone to see me here. Ich will nicht, dass mich jemand hier sieht. I just want to be alone.' The servant went away to watch. Ich möchte nur allein sein.' Der Diener ging weg, um zuzusehen. Suddenly he heard a noise and he ran to Count Paris. Plötzlich hörte er ein Geräusch und rannte zu Graf Paris. ‘There's someone coming, my Lord,' he said. Da kommt jemand, mein Herr", sagte er.

‘Quick, hide,' said the count. Schnell, versteck dich", sagte der Graf. They hid in the dark and they watched. Sie versteckten sich in der Dunkelheit und beobachteten.

Romeo and his servant were walking towards the church. Romeo und sein Diener gingen in Richtung Kirche. They watched as Romeo gave his servant a letter. Sie sahen zu, wie Romeo seinem Diener einen Brief gab. ‘Take this letter to my father tomorrow morning,' said Romeo, ‘I'm very sad. Bring diesen Brief morgen früh zu meinem Vater", sagte Romeo, "ich bin sehr traurig. I just want to die. Ich möchte einfach nur sterben. Now go away. Und jetzt gehen Sie. Leave me alone. I want to be with Juliet.' Ich will mit Juliet zusammen sein.'

Romeo's servant promised to leave, but he was worried about Romeo. He decided to wait for Romeo outside the church. Er beschloss, vor der Kirche auf Romeo zu warten. He hid in the dark and waited. Er versteckte sich in der Dunkelheit und wartete.

Just then, Count Paris came out of his hiding place. In diesem Moment kam Graf Paris aus seinem Versteck. ‘Romeo, you're a dog!' he shouted. Romeo, du bist ein Hund!", rief er. ‘You killed Tybalt! Du hast Tybalt getötet! My Juliet killed herself because you killed Tybalt.' Meine Julia hat sich umgebracht, weil du Tybalt getötet hast.'

‘Leave me alone!' said Romeo, ‘I don't want to argue with you. Lass mich in Ruhe", sagte Romeo, "ich will mich nicht mit dir streiten. Can't you see I'm a desperate man? I don't want to fight with you. Ich will nicht mit dir streiten. I just want to die. Ich möchte einfach nur sterben. Go away.'

But Count Paris pulled out his sword and attacked Romeo. Doch Graf Paris zog sein Schwert und griff Romeo an. Count Paris's servant was frightened and he ran to find help. Der Diener des Grafen Paris erschrak und lief los, um Hilfe zu holen. He ran to find Prince Escalus and the soldiers. Er rannte zu Prinz Escalus und den Soldaten.

Count Paris wasn't a good fighter, but Romeo was. It was an easy fight for Romeo and Count Paris quickly fell. Es war ein leichter Kampf für Romeo, und Graf Paris fiel schnell. ‘I'm a dead man,' he said to Romeo. 'Ich bin ein toter Mann', sagte er zu Romeo. ‘You've killed me. Du hast mich umgebracht. Please, put my body next to Juliet's. Bitte legen Sie meinen Körper neben den von Juliet. I loved her and I want to be beside her.' Ich habe sie geliebt, und ich möchte an ihrer Seite sein.

With these words, Paris died. Mit diesen Worten starb Paris.

Romeo carried the count's body into the Capulet family vault. Romeo trug die Leiche des Grafen in die Gruft der Familie Capulet. He saw the sleeping Juliet. Er sah die schlafende Juliet. She looked dead. Sie sah tot aus. Romeo looked sadly at her. Romeo sah sie traurig an. ‘Why did you have to die?' he said. Warum musstest du sterben?", fragte er. ‘You're so beautiful. Du bist so schön. Oh, my love, my wife. Oh, meine Liebe, meine Frau. I can't live without you.' Ich kann ohne dich nicht leben.'

Romeo drank the poison and he kissed his lovely Juliet. Romeo trank das Gift und küsste seine schöne Julia. ‘With a kiss, I die,' he said to her. 'Mit einem Kuss sterbe ich', sagte er zu ihr. Romeo fell down, dead. Romeo ist tot umgefallen.

Friar Laurence was running towards the church when he met Romeo's servant. Bruder Laurence läuft zur Kirche, als er Romeos Diener trifft. ‘Is Romeo in there?' said the friar. Ist Romeo da drin?", fragte der Mönch.

‘Yes,' said the servant, ‘he's been in there for about half an hour.' Ja", sagte der Diener, "er ist seit etwa einer halben Stunde da drin".

Friar Laurence ran down the steps into the family vault. Bruder Laurence rannte die Stufen hinunter in die Familiengruft. He saw Count Paris and Romeo, dead on the floor. Er sah Graf Paris und Romeo, die tot auf dem Boden lagen. He couldn't believe his eyes. Er konnte seinen Augen nicht trauen. Then, Juliet started to move, she was waking up. ‘Hello Friar Laurence,' she said. Hallo, Bruder Laurence", sagte sie. ‘Where's Romeo? Where's my Romeo?'

‘Quick. Let's go,' said the friar, ‘I can hear someone coming. Lass uns gehen", sagte der Mönch, "ich höre jemanden kommen. I'm sorry, but something terrible has happened. Es tut mir leid, aber es ist etwas Schreckliches passiert. Romeo's dead and so is Paris. Romeo ist tot und Paris auch. But we must go quickly now. Aber wir müssen jetzt schnell gehen. The soldiers are coming. Die Soldaten werden kommen. We must go.' Wir müssen gehen.'

‘No, I can't leave,' said Juliet. Nein, ich kann nicht gehen", sagte Julia. ‘You go.' Du gehst.

Friar Laurence was frightened and ran away. Bruder Lorenz erschrak und lief davon. Romeo's servant followed him. Der Diener von Romeo folgte ihm.

Juliet looked around the vault. Julia sah sich im Tresorraum um. She saw Romeo and she saw the empty poison bottle in his hand. ‘Without you I want to die. Ohne dich will ich sterben. Why didn't you leave any poison for me?' she said, picking up the bottle. Warum hast du kein Gift für mich übrig gelassen?", sagte sie und nahm die Flasche in die Hand. ‘Perhaps, if I kiss you. 'Vielleicht, wenn ich dich küsse. Perhaps you'll have poison on your lips. Vielleicht wirst du Gift auf den Lippen haben. Then I can die with your kiss.' Dann kann ich mit deinem Kuss sterben.'

Juliet kissed Romeo. His lips felt warm but there wasn't any poison left on them. Seine Lippen fühlten sich warm an, aber es war kein Gift mehr auf ihnen.

Outside the soldiers were coming closer. Draußen kamen die Soldaten immer näher. Quickly, Juliet took Romeo's dagger. Schnell nahm Julia den Dolch von Romeo. She fell down onto Romeo's body. Sie fiel auf den Körper von Romeo. She was dead. Sie war tot.

Two soldiers came into the vault. Zwei Soldaten kamen in den Tresorraum. They were shocked when they saw the three young bodies. ‘Something terrible has happened here. Hier ist etwas Schreckliches passiert.

They brought Friar Laurence and Romeo's servant with them. Sie haben Bruder Laurence und Romeos Diener mitgebracht. ‘We found these two men outside,' said one of the soldiers. ‘They were running away.' Sie sind weggelaufen.

A few moments later, Prince Escalus arrived. Lord Montague and the Capulets were with him. Lord Montague und die Capulets waren bei ihm. The prince looked at Friar Laurence.

Bitte, nimm meine Hand. Our children loved each other. Unsere Kinder liebten sich gegenseitig. They died because of our hate. Sie starben wegen unseres Hasses. We must stop this hate, now.' Wir müssen diesen Hass stoppen, jetzt.

‘Yes,' said Lord Montague, and he took Lord Capulet's hand. Ja", sagte Lord Montague und ergriff die Hand von Lord Capulet. ‘So many people have died: Mercutio, Tybalt and Count Paris. 'So viele Menschen sind gestorben: Mercutio, Tybalt und Graf Paris. Last night, my wife, Lady Montague, died of sadness. Letzte Nacht ist meine Frau, Lady Montague, vor Kummer gestorben.

Denkt an Julia und ihren Romeo, denn", so sagte er, "nie gab es eine Geschichte mit mehr Leid als die Geschichte von Julia und ihrem Romeo".
