Romeo is all depressed because of his unrequited love for Rosolind.

It is actually spelled "Rosaline"

Here is Romeo pining away for her,

She will not stay the siege of loving terms,

Nor bide the encounter of assailing eyes,

Nor ope her lap to saint-seducing gold:

O, she is rich in beauty, only poor,

That when she dies with beauty dies her store.
