Romeo and Juliet Translation.

Translation
Two Families that are in the same social class, in beautiful Verona is where our story takes place. From an old grudge comes into new arguments. Where people's blood makes people's hands unclean. From the fated bodies of these two enemies a pair of influential lovers kill themselves. Whose unfortunate piteous ruins. And with their death covers their parents arguments. The terrible path of their death showed love, and it continued their parents anger. Except for their children's death nothing could remove. It is now a two hour business on this stage. If you are patient follow closely, what you miss here our work will try to fix.
