Still working on {mIl'oD veDDIr SuvwI'}=2C which is proceeding slowly but s=
urely=2C but I've also been trying my hand elsewhere. In particular I've de=
cided to put more work towards making a good fist of Romeo and Juliet. Part=
of the reason is that I'm beginning each chapter of {mIl'oD veDDIr SuvwI'}=
with a quote=2C and I've been going to Shakespearean plays for some of the=
se quotes (mostly the published ones=2C Hamlet and paghmo' tIn mIS=2C but a=

.g. {cheDuQchugh=2C mareghbe''a'} "prick us=2C do we not bleed?"=2C veneSya=
' Suy III:1). There are a lot of quotable lines from Romeo and Juliet=2C an=
d having the original Klingon restorations to draw upon for my chapter titl=
es is handy too. =3B)
To that end=2C so far I've translated the prologue sonnet and the entirety =
of Act II=2C Scene 2 (the balcony scene). More down the track=2C but I thou=
ght I'd share the completed sections=2C starting with the prologue. As alwa=

[1] The English here is "a pair of star-crossed lovers take their life"=2C=
=0A=
in which "take their life" could carry meanings of both birth and =0A=
suicide. I couldn't work out a decent wordplay as written=2C but {yInnIS} =
=0A=
"they need to live" could alternately be read as {yIn nIS} "they disrupt li=
ves".
[2] Though strictly we don't have canon for it=2C I like using {ruch} in th=
is way. From the glosses "proceed"=2C "go ahead"=2C "do it"=2C and the sens=
e of the canon examples we do have=2C I don't think a transitive sense of "=
get on with" (as ?{Qu'lIj yIruch} "get on with your mission!") is a long st=
retch.
In English:
Two households=2C both alike in dignity=2C
In fair Verona=2C where we lay our scene=2C
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny=2C
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life=3B
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love=2C
And the continuance of their parents' rage=2C
Which=2C but their children's end=2C nought could remove=2C
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage=3B
The which if you with patient ears attend=2C
What here shall miss=2C our toil shall strive to mend.
