"What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend". This is a line from the play called 'The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet' written by William Shakespeare. It is a tragedy about the ill fated love between two youngsters called Romeo and Juliet. It is may be one of Shakespeare's most renowned plays, as well as one of his first theatricals which saw such tremendous success. It is regarded to be the most archetypical love story of Renaissance.

The above mentioned line is a part of a sonnet in the play, which talks about the love of the two youngsters. It basically means that they would work hard to make their love succeed in the future, as the present was not giving them the opportunity.

What? No!

Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;
The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

See? The actors are speaking objectively of Romeo and Juliet. The line means, "There are questions that we will try to answer about the mysterious deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Listen to our story patiently and you shall know what happened (your questions will be answered)."

You are completely wrong on this.
