It is true that Capulets did not approve of the presence of their foe at the party they have organized for their friends and acquanintances."....<em>Uncle, this is a Montague, our foe, </em>

<em>A villain that is hither come in spite </em>

<em>To scorn at our solemnity this night..."</em>Lord Capulet does not want a scandal.Besides, he notices the young Montague is behaving well.Then in this sense , it could be said that the main difference between the text and the play is that the reason for not fighting in the middle of the celebration is Lord Capulet´s decision.There is the element of joy as in the text.However, there is tension in Tybalt and Lord Capulet does not want him to cause a fight...."<em>Show a fair presence and put off these frowns..."</em>In the source text there is a description that seems to belong to that of Romeo.He acts as if he was looking for a lady to enchant with his natural attraction. In the play Romeo simply spots Juliet and feels lured to her from the moment he sets his eyes on her."....O<em>h, she shows the torches how to burn bright! She stands out against the darkness like a jeweled earring hanging ...."</em>In the play there is no explanation about how Romeo forgets his former love, Rosalind.Romeo interacts with Juliet  and later gets to know who she really is.Nevertheless, he shows not even a speck of doubt about being in trouble and in love with his enemy´s daughter.In the source text there is doubt and the mentioning of a "tempest" coming because of such an encounter.

Finally, Shakespeare used the party for Juliet  and Romeo to meet and fall in love without knowing at first who their families were.
