Wherefore art thou, Romeo? can only be misinterpreted if we ignore the
context. Isn't this in the bit about a rose by any other name, etc? I freely
admit that I did not connect it with the context either, until Edward pulled
me up!
I find Shakespeare much harder to understand than the KJV, but I was brought
up on the KJV.
Another misinterpreted bit from Willy Waggledagger:
Polonius' speech [or is it Polonious?]
When he goes on with "Neither a borrower nor a lender ..." people often
quote what he had to say. But isn't the context a long, boring speech which
is meant to make us yawn?
