BENVOLIO: Here were the servants of your adversary, And yours, close fighting ere I did approach: I drew to part them: in the instant came The fiery Tybalt, with his sword prepared, Which, as he breathed defiance to my ears, He swung about his head and cut the winds, Who nothing hurt withal hiss'd him in scorn: While we were interchanging thrusts and blows, Came more and more and fought on part and part, Till the prince came, who parted either part. Tybalt cares a lot about his family’s honor. Tybalt is hot-headed and enjoys fighting. Tybalt is a strong and skilled swordsman. Tybalt only obeys the command of the Prince of Verona.
