In which I recite the prologue to Romeo and Juliet in early 17th century English pronunciation, about two households /boːθ ələik ɪn dɪɡnɪtəi/

Note the mid-vowel /eː/ in "scene", the lower front vowel /æː/ of "make", the diphthong preserved in "pair", the velar fricative in "nought", the rounded vowel in "grudge", the non-raised TRAP vowel in "hand" and the preserved voiceless "wh" sound
