Romeo seized¹⁵ this opportunity to ask her, “Who is her mother?”
He was startled¹⁶ when he learnt that the mother was the Lady of the house and the girl was a Capulet, Juliet, Lord Capulet’s daughter.
Juliet, too, was curious to know the young man’s name and sent the nurse to make enquiries¹⁷. So she learnt that the young man she had kissed was a Montague, Romeo, the only son of her family’s enemy.
“My only love inspired by my only hate! Why must I love a detested enemy?” she lamented on the way back to her room.
Instead of returning home, Romeo left his friends, jumped over¹⁸ the garden wall and stopped under a balcony of the Capulet’s house.
Just then Juliet appeared at the balcony, speaking to herself,

O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore¹⁹ are you Romeo?
Deny²⁰ your father and refuse your name;
Or, if you will not, be but sworn²¹ to my love,
And I’ll no longer be a Capulet.
…
What’s a Montague? It is nor hand nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging²² to a man. O, be some other name!

At these words Romeo revealed his presence. “If you call me love, I will be baptized again and stop being Romeo. I hate my name, too, dear saint, because it is your enemy!”
“Though I have not heard a hundred words from your voice, I recognize it. Are you not Romeo, and a Montague?” asked Juliet.
And Romeo replied to her, “Neither of them if you do not like them!”
