What does Shakespeare mean by the words tarry not?
To tarry means to wait, to stay. In Shakespeare's day, they did not usually use the auxiliary verb "to do" when expressing negatives. They used the word "not" placed after the verb. So you got things like "to have and have not" or "Do, or do not. There is no try." (Yes, that's Yoda, not Shakespeare, but it's the same language) So "tarry not" means do not tarry, don't wait or stay. In other words, get a move on.
