Hi, its night time for me but good morning! Its currently 12:07 AM
The main idea of this paragraph is that there are different definitions of the word love. It can be forced like in a Midsummer Night's Dream (although it didn't happen in the story it almost did), or it can be a strong passion for someone (Romeo and Juliet great example), and when the paragraph says connecting families, one example would be a king of England's (forgot which one) daughter married a distant relative.
