In line 79 of R*meo and J*liet Act II Scene II by Shakespeare, “but” is best understood to mean
a. yet
b. unless
c. however
d. if only
e. though
Reference.
I have night’s cloak to hide me from their eyes,
And but thou love me, let them find me here.
My life were better ended by their hate (line 79)
Than death prorogued, wanting of thy love.

Thank you!
