I believe its "a greater power that we can contradict. Hath thwarted our intents. "Come, come away". Because the unknown is a greater power and we dont know what comes after, just as she said this shortly after she found romeo dead from poison.

Answer:

“Of death, contagion, and unnatural sleep:

A greater power than we can contradict

Hath thwarted our intents.”

Step-by-step explanation:

When Juliet comes to realize that Romeo had died in the wake of drinking the toxin, Frair Laurence reveals to her that a more prominent power which is demise has demonstrated its matchless quality and had happened.
