O me, O me! My child, my only life,
Revive, look up, or I will die with thee!
Help, help! Call help…
Alack the day, she’s dead, she’s dead, she’s dead!

– William Shakespeare

Romeo and Juliet, Act 4, Scene 5. Lady Capulet reacts with desperation and shock to Juliet’s death. She pleads with her to come back to life and calls out for help. Her repetition in the last line emphasizes a mother’s shock at losing her only daughter. There is dramatic irony here, because Juliet is sleeping and not dead.
