after she [thisbe] had perceived her own garment, and beheld, too, the ivory sheath without its sword, she said, "tis thy own hand, and love, that has destroyed thee, ill-fated youth! i, too, have a hand bold enough for this one purpose; i have love as well; this shall give me strength for the wound. i will follow thee in thy death". .thus she said; and having fixed the point under the lower part of her breast, she fell upon the sword, which still was reeking with his blood.
[ovid, metamorphoses]

juliet: "what's here? a cup, clos'd in my true love's hand?
poison, i see, hath been his timeless end.
o churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop
to me after? i will kiss thy lips.
haply some poison yet doth hang on them
to make me die with a restorative. [kisses him.]
thy lips are warm! [snatches romeo's dagger.]
this is thy sheath; there rest, and let me die. [she stabs herself and falls on romeo's body.]
