I'd agree with R & J, but how about the saying goodbye in the morning scene? Or perhaps the balcony scene, because it has not only passion but also that yummy giddy glow of first love and exploring who they are, and just can't say goodbye quality.
A day later and time to reflect on my answer, and I'm thinking perhaps the chapel scene with Benedick and Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing. It's only 75 lines, and has a rare chance for a female actor to display true righteous indignation, and there is a lot more going on than just the love story, but it starts with a quiet but heartfelt passion. It begins with Ben: "Lady Beatrice have you wept all this while?" It doesn't have the youthful exuberance of R & J, but it has more, and arguable deeper layers.

Probably all of Romeo & Juliet could be nominated as a passionate love 'scene'. :P Yet my mind flies to other plays as well. For example, the last scene of Othello, where he strangles Desdemona in his rage, or the solliloquy/monologue in Twelfth Night, where Viola admits her love for Orsino, but cannot due anything for she is pretending to be a man... or... well, there are so many.
:D

Give the ten to number one. In all of history William knew how to express PASSION in a very non sexual way, and today hundreds of years later, it stands strong.

I also agree with number one (tiffany). Not many people successfully write passion without resorting to the romp in the sac.
He made suicide sexy, passionate, and romantic.
(maybe that's not such a good thing *wink*)

i think it was in romeo and juliet, the dying scene... he thought she was dead so he gave up his life to be with her in the next life, when she awoke she killed herself to be with him, it's passionate and romantic all at the same time which makes it BeAuTiFuL
