What does the following speech mean?

hold, then. go home, be merry, give consent
to marry paris. wednesday is to-morrow.
to-morrow night look that thou lie alone;
let not the nurse lie with thee in thy chamber.
take thou this vial, being then in bed,
and this distilled liquor drink thou off;
when presently through all thy veins shall run
a cold and drowsy humour; for no pulse
shall keep his native progress, but surcease;
no warmth, no breath, shall testify thou liv'st;
the roses in thy lips and cheeks shall fade
to paly ashes, thy eyes' windows fall
like death when he shuts up the day of life;
each part, depriv'd of supple government,
shall, stiff and stark and cold, appear like death;
and in this borrowed likeness of shrunk death
thou shalt continue two-and-forty hours,
and then awake as from a pleasant sleep.
now, when the bridegroom in the morning comes
to rouse thee from thy bed, there art thou dead
then, as the manner of our country is,
in thy best robes uncovered on the bier
thou shalt be borne to that same ancient vault
where all the kindred of the capulets lie.
in the mean time, against thou shalt awake,
shall romeo by my letters know our drift;
and hither shall he come; and he and i
will watch thy waking, and that very night
shall romeo bear thee hence to mantua.
and this shall free thee from this present shame,
if no inconstant toy nor womanish fear
abate thy valour in the acting it.
