Remember he tries to get on, but almost overbalances the whole thing so he gives up on it.

Romeo and Juliet was even more of a tragic mess! Romeo had been told that Juliet had killed herself, so went to the crypt in order to kill himself and thereby be with her again. Juliet of course wasn't dead - she'd merely taken some sort of potion which made her appear to be dead so when she wakes to find Romeo has taken poison, she kills herself with the dagger.
'Thy lips are warm' - a line from the play that shows how close she came to waking up before he took the poison - he'd taken it recently enough for his body to have retained warmth. That line had to be almost thrown away by Clare Danes in the modern Romeo and Juliet as it didn't make sense in the context of that story.
We appear to have gone just a tiny bit off topic... sorry lads.
