this is one i wrote for grade 10 english. we were also tasked to use old english and write it on Romeo and Juliet though.. but feel free to use it!

Oh fate, thy cruellest of most cruel fate

Hath thou more misfortune to bring mine way

I pray thee telleth whence cometh such hate

Yond thou wilt hath't on this sorrowful day

Oh fate, I hath't did lose mine dearest friend

I hath't slain mine poor wife's dearest cousin

To this merciless wrath, I pray an end

For thy such wrath hath did harm a dozen

Oh fate, far, far hence art thee driving me

Far hence from mine most beloved Juliet

Giveth some valorous fortune prithee

To poise the pain that maketh mine cheeks wet

Oh fate, hither I anon lie in sorrow

And pray thee wilt give a better morrow
