Read the excerpt from Act I, scene i of Romeo and Juliet.

Tybalt: What! art thou drawn among these heartless hinds?
Turn thee, Benvolio, look upon thy death.

Benvolio: I do but keep the peace: put up thy sword,
Or manage it to part these men with me.

Tybalt: What! drawn, and talk of peace? I hate the word,
As I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee.
Have at thee, coward! [They fight.]
