"Am I the master here, or you? Go to"
Capulet asks this rhetorical question to Tybalt in order to put him in his place. Capulet is Tybalt's elder and Tybalt is speaking as though he will ignore his uncle's wishes. Capulet reminds Tybalt that he is the one in charge, not Tybalt. Capulet reminds Tybalt of his position at the beginning of this excerpt as well when he says "It is my will; the which if thou respect". Here he is telling Tybalt that he wants Tybalt to leave Romeo and his friends alone. If Tybalt respects Capulet, he'll not engage in a fight with the Montagues at the party.

Such difficulties are compared, in an extended metaphor, to a storm. Even though the stormy winds are strong enough to almost sink the ship, the man remains strong and hopeful. He tells himself the storm will soon pass, and he will be able to reach his destination when it does. The speaker is thus, comparing overcoming the hardships in life to weathering a storm.
