just the softest kiss of nightshade,
we mean to still, not lay to waste.
less than the tip of my knife's blade...
are you prepared to take your taste?

a dram or two of mistletoe
will put you in the calmest state,
so ne'er a soul will ever know...
are you prepared to take your taste?

with honey steeped and cooled...now pet:
careful this draught's source can't be traced
if you intend this, juiliette...
are you prepared to take your taste?

This is exquisitely rendered, and I'm not a fan of "Romeo and Juliet" at all. Very, very impressive.
