1. Sonnet Number 1- B.C.P<br />Ne’er once was a tale so vast in extent<br />Than that of Juliet, and her dearest:<br />For not once was love so great in torment<br />Whilst still bearing kinship to the nearest. <br />Romeo, a Montague, was a fire<br />Blazing, in search of true lover’s passion,<br />Whilst his love were but a pond of desire<br />Trapped in the bleak waters of her mansion.<br />But oh, ne’er before did hot fire get drenched<br />Or wintry, frigid waters ignited<br />For the hatred of their fam’lies entrenched <br />Had caused their link to be benighted.<br />Vile hate led vile ends to their parents’ strife;<br />For both lovers, in the end, took their life.<br />“For never was a story of more woe,<br />Than this of Juliet, and her Romeo.”<br /> –The Prince Escales, from the play <br />“Romeo and Juliet”<br />
