Benvolio: Part, fools! Put up your swords; you know not what you do. [Beats down their swords.]

Enter TYBALT.

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.]

—Romeo and Juliet,
William Shakespeare
