"Please, sir, can you read?" said Capulet's servant, and he gave Romeo
the list of manes.
Romeo read it out for him:"Signor Martino and his wife and daughters;
Count Anselm and his beautiful sisters; Lucio and Helena; Rosaline...Where are
they to meet?"
"At dinner at my master Capulet's house tonight. If you aren't a
Montague, come and drink a cup of wine with us all."
"THis," said Benvolio gladly,"is the chance I wanted for you! Go
there, and compare uour Rosaline with other beautiful women. She's beautiful
to you now because you gave met so few others."
"I will go-but only to look at Rosaline. The sun never saw her equal
since the wofld began."
Juliet was with her mother, Lady Capulet, and the nurse who had
brought her up from a little baby.
"You were the prettiest child I ever nursed," said the Nurse. "If only
I could live to see you married! Then I would have everything I wish for!"
"That's what I came to talk about," said Lady Capulet."Juliet, how do
you fell about getting married?"
"I haven't thought very much about it," answered Juliet.
"Younger girls than you, here in Verona, are already important ladies
and mothers. I'll tell you now: Count Paris hopes to win your love."
"He is a man, almost a perfect man!" cried the Nurse. "He's the finest
man in Verona!"
"You'll see him tonight at our feast," said Lady Capulet. "He needs a
wife. He needs only yourself to make him perfect."
