  1. A) Romeo speaking about Juliet saying her last  name is Capulet and the Capulets are sworn enemies of Romeo's family.  Therefore they would hate him for loving her,  but he can't help himself.

    B) Juliet speaking about Romeo - meaning the only love she has ever felt is toward someone in the only family that HER family would not want her involved in.  "too early seen unknown and known too late" means that she saw Romeo and fell in love with him unknowing that he was hated by her family.  Known too late (found out too late) that he was an enemy.

    I love this drama - I think I will read it again.


  2. A) Romeo says this on realising that Julliet is a Capulet and therefre should be his sworn enemy, but he's all sad because she's so beautiful

    B)Julliet says this. She means that the only man she has ever loved is from the thing that she is meant to hate. She wishes she had known he was a Montague before she fell in love

    Hope I helped =]
