Explanation:

William Shakespeare's romance tragedy "Romeo and Juliet" tells the unfortunate love story of two lovers torn by their family feud. This feud will also become the cause of their deaths, which will in turn be the cause of their mending their enmity against each other.

Act 4 scene iii shows Juliet and her nurse conversing about the poison that will 'kill' Juliet so that she will be united with her husband Romeo. This was a plan made so that her momentary death will also stop her marriage to Count Paris and thus save her from marrying anyone else and be with Romeo. The lines in the excerpt shows her insecurity over the thought of consuming the poison, wondering what if she never wakes up from that 'sleep'. She is worried that she might be left forever with the "bones of all my buried ancestors" who had been dead "for these many hundred years".
