Hold, then; go home, be merry, give consent
To marry Paris: Wednesday is to-morrow:
To-morrow night look that thou lie alone;
Let not thy nurse lie with thee in thy chamber:
Take thou this vial, being then in bed,
And this distilled liquor drink thou off;
When presently through all thy veins shall run
A cold and drowsy humour, for no pulse
Shall keep his native progress, but surcease:
No warmth, no breath, shall testify thou livest;
The roses in thy lips and cheeks shall fade
To paly ashes, thy eyes' windows fall,
Like death, when he shuts up the day of life;
Each part, deprived of supple government,
Shall, stiff and stark and cold, appear like death:
And in this borrow'd likeness of shrunk death
Thou shalt continue two and forty hours,
And then awake as from a pleasant sleep.
Now, when the bridegroom in the morning comes
To rouse thee from thy bed, there art thou dead:
Then, as the manner of our country is,
In thy best robes uncover'd on the bier
Thou shalt be borne to that same ancient vault
Where all the kindred of the Capulets lie.
In the mean time, against thou shalt awake,
Shall Romeo by my letters know our drift,
And hither shall he come: and he and I
Will watch thy waking, and that very night
Shall Romeo bear thee hence to Mantua.
And this shall free thee from this present shame;
If no inconstant toy, nor womanish fear,
Abate thy valour in the acting it. William Shakespeare – Romeo and Juliet Act 4 Scene 1
On Thursday, sir? the time is very short. William Shakespeare – Romeo and Juliet Act 4 Scene 1

Friar Lawrence gives Juliet the drink, which will work for 42 hours.
Here’s the plan for Juliet so she can avoid marrying Paris, and be with Romeo.
Juliet will be drugged; the Capulets will think she is dead, and bury her.
Friar Lawrence will send a letter to Romeo telling him to go back to Verona.
When Juliet wakes up after 42 hours, Romeo will be there and they will meet again and run away happily.
Of course the plan does not work, or the story would end very differently.
In this setting and time period, wealthy people like the campuses weren’t buried. They were put into tombs
its shit
