Shakespear Act 1 Scene 2 What arrangement do Capulet and Paris make?

What do Benvolio and Romeo plan to do?

What does Benvolio say to convince Romeo to go forth with this plan?

1. Count Paris, a kinsman of the Prince, tells Capulet that he wants to marry his daughter, Juliet. Capulet's a little reluctant to agree because his daughter is so young, but he tells Paris that if he can woo Juliet successfully, then he'll grant him permission to marry her.

2. Romeo and Benvolio happen by, still arguing about whether Romeo will be able to forget his love. ... Benvolio tells Romeo that the feast will be the perfect opportunity to compare Rosaline with the other beautiful women of Verona. Romeo agrees to go with him, but only because Rosaline herself will be there.

3. Benvolio wants to help Romeo let go of his obsession with Rosaline, and he explains that, while at the party, Romeo will be able to compare her to other girls and realize she is not the most beautiful. Romeo, on the other hand, says he will go to the party just so he can see Rosaline, the woman he believes he loves.
