please help me with those verses from Romeo and juliet?

Question

can you tell me what are the pump, the sole, solely singular, and the goose? I know it is talking about something bawdy, but please feel free to tell me the plot of shakespeare.
MERCUTIO
30 Sure wit, follow me this jest now till thou hast worn out thy pump, that when the single sole of it is worn, the jest may remain, after the wearing solely singular.

ROMEO
O single-soled jest, solely singular for the singleness.
MERCUTIO
Come between us, good Benvolio. My wits faints.
ROMEO
Switch and spurs, switch and spurs, or I'll cry a match.

MERCUTIO
Nay, if our wits run the wild-goose chase, I am done, for thou hast more of the wild-goose in one of thy wits than, I am sure, I have in my whole five. Was I with you there for the goose?

ROMEO
35 Thou wast never with me for anything when thou wast not there for the goose.

Answer 1

If you back up a few lines,
http://www.william-shakespeare.info/act2-script-text-romeo-and-juliet.htm
you will find it easier to detect that Mercutio is a young thug from one clan or family who is baiting his equal from another family in an effort to stir up a fight
(the first lines of the play are
"Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.")
Unlike today, where the punks and the crips might throw slang or "Yo mutha", these two are on stage exchanging sexual innuendo with Mercutio being the aggressor. This partially ties to Romeo having a reputation for flitting between girls. Later in the play, he is going to fall for one of Mecutio's relatives (Juliet) and invade one of her clan's dances in disguise.
Some of this is pretty crude and depending on the production will be eliminated or played down today.
Wild goose is playing between goosing someone (poking them sexually/rectally) and the wild behavior of the flightly wild goose which can not be tamed.
If done in context, the gestures accompanying "one of thy wits than, I am sure, I have in my whole five" would probably include a f--king finger with "one of thy wits" and a cupped hand of male masterbation with "in my whole five" and all of that ties back to "worn out thy pump" of being a poor sexual performer.
Before these lines, when Mecutio first stops Romeo to pick the fight (Romeo having been ordered by the Duke to stop this trash talk) it says
"That's as much as to say, such a case as yours
constrains a man to bow in the hams."
and this would be accompanied by a mocking copy of Romeo's bow of tension from just the hips with the legs held together (hams=upper legs), implying that Romeo has a sexual disease and can not move freely or in context that he abuses himself to the point of pain (or perhaps the gal kicked him?!)
Like a modern cartoon (Shrek) the references go flying by and any one person in the audience might get some while the person next to him gets others.

Answer 2

Way back when, two rich kids fall in love with each other. But the can't be together because their families hate each other. The girl's dad wants to marry her off the some other guy. Juliet marries Romeo in secret & they come up with a plan to be together. She will drink a potion & pretend to die, then will hook up the Romero later after the mouring. There is a mixup & Romeo thinks she is actually dead & kills himself. Juliet wakes up & sees Romeo's dead body & kills herself with a knife. The parents find the dead kinds & decide to end the feud. Basically that's the story.

Answer 3

Well,expensive,all of R and J is written in clean verse; correctly, that is actual of all of Shakespeare's performs. Exception: probably the most lessen magnificence characters and probably the most royals who move mad--talk in prose.
