Question

When Paris asks to marry Juliet, what is Capulet's reaction?

Answer 1

Answer:

He says 13 is too young to marry, but if Juliet likes him then it's okay

Explanation:

"PARIS- Of honourable reckoning are you both;

And pity ’tis you lived at odds so long.

But now, my lord, what say you to my suit?

CAPULET- But saying o’er what I have said before:

My child is yet a stranger in the world;

She hath not seen the change of fourteen years;

Let two more summers wither in their pride,

Ere we may think her ripe to be a bride.

PARIS- Younger than she are happy mothers made." Act I, Scene II, Lines 4-12

Answer 2

He tells him Juliet is already married
