Nowing exchange between Romeo and Juliet from act I of Romeo and Julier. What does the excerpt reveal about the love between the

two young people?
ROMEO: (to JULIET) If profane with my urworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.

Which mannerly devotion shows in this
For saints have hands that pilgrims hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.
ROMEO: Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?
JULIET: Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.
