Two teenagers from feuding Verona families fall for each other in one night and marry in secret, and when a plan to fake her death goes wrong, both kill themselves beside each other, finally forcing their families to make peace.

But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!
Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare
