    Two Towns Both Alike Without Dignity

    Two Towns Both Alike Without Dignity

    Two towns, both alike without dignity,
    In fair Piddleton, where it's about to go down,
    From ancient grudge break to petty crimes,
    Where careless butchers make vegans fancy bacon.
    From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
    A pair of star-cross'd lovers take to the clocktower;
    Whose millennial piteous overthrows
    Do with their melodrama bury their parents' strife.
