Servants of the Capulet and Montague houses start a fight.  Benvolio sees them and rises his sword to stop the fight.  On the other hand, when Tybalt sees Benvolio he immediately prepares to attack.  This shows how opposites Benvolio and Tybalt are: Benvolio is a more rational, calmed man whereas  Tybalt is impulsive and prone to fight.

An example of how they are foil characters can be found in their first interaction.  Benvolio says to the servants,

<em>Part fools! Put up your swords; you know not what you do</em>

attempting to separate them and asks Tybalt to"keep the peace" to which Tybalt replies

<em>What, drawn, and talk of peace! I hate the word, As I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee</em>

Answer:

Dante was an Italian poet and philosopher in the Medieval period.

Explanation:

The most famous works of Dante Alighieri was "The Divine comedy". It made a remarkable impression in literature and theology.

Dante Alighieri was born in '1265' to a family who was involved in the complex Florentine political scene. His mother died in his early childhood.  

His marriage was arranged with a family friend, Gemma Donati when he was only tweleve years old. But Dante loved Beatrice Portinari. She had a great influence on his life. She is the backbone of his famous work “Divine Comedy”. Beatrice was a love at first sight for Dante when he was nine years old, but his love was never reciprocated by her. She died in 1290 unexpectedly. She was a major inspiration of major works by Dante.

By 1295, he got completely involved in political causes. He was elected to the City Council and was a member of Guelph political party. Florence had two major political parties at that time: Guelphs and Ghibellines.

Which line completes the quatrain's rhyme scheme?
Feliz [49]

Answer: The shore's a backdrop for my lonely day.

Explanation:

This quatrain's rhyme scheme is such that a line must rhyme with the line that follows after the next line. This is why lines 1 and 3 rhyme by ending with the words: "alone" and "flown".

We need to pick an option therefore, that has a last word that can rhyme with the word "stay" in line 2. That option is the one above which has "day" at it's end. "Day" and "stay" rhyme so this is the correct answer.
